EL PASO, Texas ( KTSM ) — La Nube STEAM Discovery Center is inviting the community to its unveiling ceremony of a new recycled art installation.
“Ram-arkable Resilience: Art Meets Conservation” is a new collaborative art installation that will be unveiled to the public at 2 p.m. on Saturday, Sept. 28 and will be on display until Nov. 2.
Ram-arkable Resilience “depicts El Paso’s iconic mountain range and imagines what it may be like to spot a desert bighorn sheep roaming the slopes,” according to La Nube.
The art installation is “entirely out of recycled trash” as the materials include cardboard boxes, water bottles, newspaper, plastic forks and some damaged fabric from one of La Nube’s exhibits.
“We are excited to partner with the Green Hope Project. This initiative aligns with La Nube’s mission to ignite imagination and inspire guests to discover, create, and innovate by engaging the community in creative environmental stewardship through art and education,” said Norma Escandon, early childhood coordinator for La Nube. “By highlighting the importance of preserving native wildlife, La Nube empowers visitors to become visionary thinkers and responsible changemakers for the natural world.”
