Cape May – Lewes Ferry to Host Iconic Smokey Bear Artwork; Partnership with N.J. Forest Fire Service to Promote Fire Safety and Wildfire Prevention

With the goal of heightening public awareness and wildfire prevention messages, Jersey Cape visitors will see a collection of Smokey Bear artwork by Rudy Wendelin displayed temporarily. The display at the Cape May Ferry Terminal is the result of a new partnership between the Delaware River and Bay Authority and the New Jersey Forest Fire Service. The New Jersey display collection is comprised of some of Wendelin’s post-retirement images and features 19 oil, acrylic, and watercolor paintings of various sizes. The Cape May Ferry terminal is one of six tour locations to host the mobile exhibit this summer.
