IMMERSIVE EXPERIENCE
THE PLASTIC BAG STORE
11am, 1pm, 3pm, 5pm
The Plastic Bag Store is an immersive multimedia experience by Brooklyn-based artist Robin Frohardt that uses humor, craft, and a critical lens to question our culture of consumption and convenience — specifically, the enduring effects of our single-use plastics. During timed activations, the store transforms into an immersive, dynamic stage for a film in which inventive puppetry, shadow play, and intricate handmade sets tell the darkly comedic, sometimes tender story of how the overabundance of plastic waste we leave behind might be misinterpreted by future generations.
SPECIAL EVENT
