Thanks to everyone that dropped off their cans for our Cans For Seeds Membership Giveaway, we have a HUGE haul of cans that will soon be on their way to @olgin_efune_recycling_co to be recycled!
Did you know that recycling aluminum requires only a fraction of the energy needed to produce new aluminum? The 1,500+ aluminum cans we collected will be repurposed and reused in various applications, such as packaging, transportation, construction, and electronics!
Forgot your cans today? No worries! We collect cans year-round and use the funds from recycling for our Seed Library, located right outside of Admissions!

✨ New Installation Spotlight ✨
This newly installed sculpture draws inspiration from the Los Diablos Danzantes de Yare, a Venezuelan tradition recognized by UNESCO as Intangible Cultural Heritage. Known for their striking masks and symbolic power, these figures represent resilience, ritual, and cultural identity.
Created as a self-portrait, Sawyer Boyd crafted the piece from recycled skate decks sourced from Cowtown Skateboards in Tempe, with every scuff and mark telling a story of persistence and growth. The glowing horns—made from colorful argon-filled glass—symbolize the merging of American and Venezuelan heritage, while also highlighting the wear earned through repeated attempts and failures. Like skate culture itself, the work celebrates progress over perfection, reminding us that mastery is built through resilience.
