From waste stream to "wear" stream to mainstream?

Thought you left your tired dawgs' flops on the beach never to be seen again...think again! Dawn Stetzel, an artist in the Lincoln City area, is working on her new line of "Beach Found Footwear", part art installation, part performance that may give rise to those old flops you thought were long gone. Dawn's been collecting footwear from beach cleanup events and with the Oregon Statewide Beach Cleanup this Saturday (10am-1pm!), remember to keep your eyes peeled to help contribute to her project. The art installation and performance event will take place in Lincoln City, Oregon as part of the Earth Day celebration on April 24th. You can reach Dawn at dawnstetzel@hotmail.com and she'll gladly figure out pickup or delivery of the forlorn footwear.
