East Peoria Green Team member Shelly Farmer and her husband Rick recently visited Reiman Gardens in Ames, Iowa to look at the sculptures made from trash collected from beaches around Bandon, Oregon.

This exhibit of larger-than-life sea creatures graphically illustrates the issue of the pollution in our oceans and waterways. Their daughter Jennifer Faraci is an artist apprentice for WashedAshore.org.

Try to visit Reiman Gardens to see this exhibit which runs till October 31, 2017.
