We never imagined, a summery evening with the glow of the dome of the Capitol as the backdrop, that our 1,000 yards of one beach would be center stage at the Newseum.
Since 1999 Richard and Judith Lang have focused their attention on just 1000 yards of tide line where they have collected plastic washing ashore on Kehoe Beach in the Point Reyes National Seashore. Although the news about plastic pollution is dire, they bring the excitement of scouting for treasures and the pleasure of the creative life to an otherwise difficult topic.

Newseum
It's a great pleasure is to do something you love just because it feels like the right thing to do. Even greater is to have a forum to bring that something into the world. We appreciate Teknion for giving us this opportunity to entertain and educate their designers and colleagues in DC and thanks to them for laughing at our jokes. The applause was a great reward but even more was the thrill of watching their enthusiasm, as they took to the plastic hands-on.
