Bring a snack and join us for the opening of Twin Urns: Two ceramic urns installed on the footpath of the Queens Botanical Garden transform visitors’ inner thoughts into fertilizer for the plants. On slips of paper made from garden waste, visitors can write down their desires, wishes, fears, secrets, or anything they wish to get off their chest and place them into either the Manifestor or the Incinerator. At the end of the season, the papers will be burned in a cleansing ritual and incorporated into the garden’s compost program. Learn more about Chloe and her work: chloeseibert.com.
