Sponsor links generally will take you to the sponsor's home page on the web.

Location links are of three types: place names will take you to a web page for the place; addresses will bring up a MapQuest map for that address; and, latitude and longitude coordinates will bring up a Google street map for the same location.

Sponsor logos will also take you to the sponsor home page, when it exists.

Turtle pictures, artist names, and turtle titles will take you to the home page for the particular turtle where you will find artist biographies, work diaries for the turtle project, links to artist home pages, and more pictures of the turtles. These pages are currently under construction!
