This banner image is a close-up of sky through the Tacoma Narrows Bridge, with the 2025 WLA Conference logo in the center. The 2025 WLA Conference Logo includes the conference theme "Building Bridges & Connecting Communities" in a handwritten font on banners that frame the image. The image is also framed by rope and includes the Tacoma Narrows bridge and a mountain in the background, with fuschia octopus tentacles emerging around the bridge and in the foreground, shaping the ampersand symbol of the conference theme. The bottom text reads "#WLA2025 Tacoma, WA April 10-12.”
