the tiny

A tiny museum is built into a display case outside a home. Features at least one exhibit at a time, and a "gift shop" where one can adopt a pet rock, all of whom are named Dwayne. The neighborhood responded to this joke, so now there are frequently other pets available for adoption: Iras (glass), Billys (crystals), Roberts (plants), Lucilles (balls), etc. Very fun.

[Naama Haviv, 10/30/2020]

Curated by local resident Naama Haviv, who was inspired when she saw an empty display case curbside. The museum opened on July 3rd.
