Peabody Essex Museum Special Exhibit: Trash Menagerie

The Peabody Essex Museum in Salem, MA is featuring a special exhibit called Trash Menagerie, where artists created incredibly beautiful works of art from things most of us would simply throw away. The exhibit will be on view through May 2010.

The Lane Memorial Library has discount passes to the Peabody Essex Museum. The pass admits two adults at $5 per person. (Regular admission without the pass is $15 per adult).
