Take A Self-Guided Tour of the

Teaneck Creek Conservancy’s Eco-Art Trail

 

The public is invited to take a self-guided outdoor tour of the Eco-Art Trail in the Teaneck Creek Conservancy Area of Overpeck Park.

The Eco-Art Trail features the work of three artists: Valentina DuBasky, Lynne Hull, and Kerry Mills.  This trailside eco-art exhibition will run from November 2004 through February 2005. Grants from the Puffin Foundation sponsored the work of Valentine DuBasky and Kerry Mills. A grant from the Nancy H. Gray Foundation sponsored Lynne Hull’s work. 

Community volunteers helped gather materials, construct, and install these art works with the artists who created them.  All the artworks include materials found in Overpeck Park: dumped concrete debris, “floatables” - litter that washed down storm drains in streets during rainstorms -- from Teaneck Creek, native stones, tree branches, colorful autumn leaves.

Maps of the self-guided tour are available at the Conservancy’s office at 20 East Oakdene Avenue in Teaneck, NJ or upon request (Please see www.puffinfoundation.org under “Puffin Cultural Forum” for directions to the Conservancy or call 201-836-2403).
