Funded by the Smart Growth Partnership and by the Robertshaw Foundation, The Green Edge of Westmoreland, the photographic exhibition is by nationally known photographer Lynn Johnson. Johnson's 30 black and white photographs document in portraits and landscapes many of the conservationists, farmers, stewards, and visionaries of Westmoreland County. The exhibition features both Westmoreland's rich natural beauty and vulnerable resources. Portraits of waterways, towns, fields, families, and pockets of wilderness are included in the exhibition which is accompanied by text written by poet and UPG English Professor Judith Vollmer.

Johnson's work is widely known in the pages of both National Geographic and Sports Illustrated. She also has exhibited internationally in galleries, universities, and book publications in both group and solo projects. Johnson traveled back to Westmoreland County regularly during the past year while she was simultaneously working on a photo project on the weapons of mass destruction for National Geographic. The photos in The Green Edge of Westmoreland include scenes from Western Pennsylvania's dramatic four seasons and intricate topography.
