Mississippi River Pearl Wings

This is the Mississippi River Pearl, a large sculpture created by 10 artists, a mayor and a scientist. We picked up trash along the Mississippi River for 2 hours and created this interactive educational sculpture. With the grant from the Mississippi Watershed Management Organization, we were able to learn about what the plastics do to the water that is 80 percent of Minneapolis' drinking water. The sculpture has been used for educational workshops at the Mill City Museum, through Guthrie Education, and MWMO. See more about it with the link.
