Brief Description: Tours begin with a short presentation of "how to recycle" in San Francisco. Tours then visit the artist working in the studio, the transfer station pit, and the sculpture garden. Most school groups re-board the bus for a three-mile trip to Recycle Central at Pier 96 to see how paper, bottles, and cans are sorted for recycling. |
