Turtles About Town is a public art project that showcases the conservation efforts of Turtle Island Restoration Network . Turtle Island Restoration Network, a leading advocate for the world’s oceans and marine wildlife, has partnered with Clay Cup Studios, a local interactive art studio, to bring this project to the island.
