Welcome to the Walter Ingles Anderson Horn Island Project website.  The natural beauty of Horn Island inspired the art and journal writing of the famous artist and naturalist.

The purpose of this site is to support art and science teachers in collaborative efforts to teach students about the weather, tides, plants, creatures and ecology of Horn Island as well as the paintings, drawings, sketches and ceramics creations of one of Mississippi's most gifted and prolific artists.
