The Garbage Barge Revisited: Art from Dross
June 13 - September 2
Reception: July 29th from 1-4pm
Curated by Karen Shaw
In 1987, Islip Town became infamous when a barge containing tons of commercial trash from the town was forced to sail along the Atlantic coast for 3 months in search of a landfill for the waster. As a result, Islip Town paved the way for the nation to reduce, reuse and recycle.
