Washed Ashore

Washed Ashore: Art to Save the Sea is making its way to the Topeka Zoo & Conservation Center as well as the Topeka area this summer! This powerful traveling exhibit transforms ocean pollution into stunning works of art, featuring massive sculptures of marine animals made entirely from debris collected from beaches.

Each larger-than-life creation tells a story about the impact of plastic waste on our planet’s waterways and wildlife — and inspires all of us to take action for cleaner oceans and a healthier environment. Guests of all ages will be amazed by the artistry, creativity, and important conservation message woven into every piece.
