We are pleased to announce that periodically we will be featuring one of our members. We thought it was appropriate to feature our past BRNN President and one of the founding board members of our non-profit.

Ken Czarnomski

Ken Czarnomski is a seasoned architect, artist and educator. He has spent much of his life exploring the natural world with adventures in National Parks and Forests throughout all fifty states and foreign countries, creating artistic visions from these.  As he expanded his travels, he discovered illustrated maps in Ireland, which inspired his final project for his North Carolina Arboretum Blue Ridge Naturalist certification in 2013. He donated that Purchase Knob map to Haywood County Tourist Development Authority, where they continue to do ten thousand printings at a time. To date, he has reached over 100,000 people through various publications.
