Friends of Sierra Rock Art is an all volunteer organization of professionals and avocationalists dedicated to the conservation, preservation, site documentation, site monitoring, education about, and management of rock art sites in the northern Sierra Nevada and other beyond. FSRA conducts a site monitoring program in cooperation with the Tahoe National Forest, sponsors site recording projects, publishes 3-4 newsletters per year, and organizes educational outings to rock art sites often led by an archaeologist and/or local land manager.
FSRA is dedicated to and promotes a preservationist and conservationist ethic in regard to rock art and all other archaeological resources. As well as doing public education, we work with branches of the Forest Service, BLM, American Indian groups, and other community agencies/organizations to help protect and study rock art sites.
Founded in 1991 FSRA is the first non-professional organization to have received the Society for California Archaeology's Helen C. Smith award for contributions to California archaeology.
