Placer Recycles Day


We had a great time making art at Placer Recycles Day. There was an amazing fashion show by Haute Trash (Clothes from trash)... but I think the highlight of the day for me was the Trash Can Band called the Petting Zoo. I loved the great sounds they made from trash! Here is a short clip from them.
