This project was created in collaboration with the National Park Friends Alliance. At their annual gathering, a network of nonprofit partners come together representing more than 200 national park sites across the country.

For decades, friends groups and nonprofit partners have quietly supported our national parks. Preserving trails, uplifting communities, and ensuring these places endure for generations to come.

The Forever Room was created as a space for them.

A place to pause. To reflect. To see their own stories on the walls, and to discover the stories of others who share the same purpose.

What emerges is something simple, but powerful – a reminder that these parks are not just places we visit, but places that shape who we are.
