A Creative Treasure Hunt!
Not all that’s lost is waste—some of it is waiting to be discovered! Our Artist in Residence, Cory Kram, will be on-site, sifting through the river’s offerings in search of hidden treasures. This wealth of found material will be transformed into art, proving that even discarded objects can have new life. Participants are welcome to assist in the search for artistic gems and will be invited back to help turn this reclaimed treasure into something truly special.
