I don’t know what time we left the
house on Saturday. I had programmed the
address for the Washed Ashore Gallery in Bandon, Oregon. We arrived in Bandon sometime between 10:00
and 11:00. We found a parking spot in
the lot behind these two sculptures.
The
outside doors were open, but the inside doors were not. We decided to walk around the town and ended
up on the pier. Here are some of the
pictures that we took:
There are perhaps 8 streets surrounded
by two signs
A tourist trap which reminds me of Skagway or Newfoundland (which I have never been; I have only seen parts portrayed on television’s “the Republic of Doyle”
We explored a few shops, purchased
some fudge, got something to eat and made our way back to the museum which had
opened.
So sad that so much waste has polluted the oceans and are killing the sea life. These items and sculptures were made from the garbage that had been washed ashore
And those are not all of the pictures
that we took. Learn more here and visit
a washed ashore exhibit near you. Hopefully each of them will provide a workshop opportunity for you to participate in assisting with future creation of other sculptures
