The Boca Raton’s Children’s Museum hosted a family fun event for Earth Day on Saturday, April 21st. The event featured a recycled fashion show, bounce house, art projects, music, vendors and FUN for the entire family!
Boca Save our Beaches, partnered with the Green Living Alliance of Boca Raton, to create an interactive art project for children. An image of a turtle was painted beforehand on an 18×24 inch canvas, and ocean plastic was placed by visitors, color coded to the image….think paint by numbers. You can now see the finished product by visiting the Children’s Museum, as it will be on display.
The ocean plastic was beach debris collected by volunteers of Boca Save our Beaches, on April 14th during the Great American Cleanup at South Beach Park in Boca Raton. The most collected item during the cleanup…? Bottle caps.
Thank you to the Children’s Museum sponsors for making Earth Day possible, and remember – every day should be Earth Day!
