With the incredible support of the\u00a0PacOut Green Team, who joined us on February 21, the Lab community removed the equivalent of\u00a0four 40-yard dumpsters\u00a0of material. The scale of the effort was immense, and so was the heart behind it.<\/p>\n<p>We also want to recognize the volunteers who spent Valentine\u2019s Day showing their love in the most glorious way possible: by helping us move from our original location into our new home on Samoa Boulevard. We were blown away by the turnout. Supporters traveled from as far as\u00a0Redding\u00a0and\u00a0Grass Valley, arriving with trucks, trailers, tools, and unstoppable energy. What could have been overwhelming became uplifting because of this community!<\/p>\n<p>This transition would not have been possible without the continued flexibility and support of the\u00a0Yurok Tribe, who have stood behind the Lab during this period of change. We are deeply thankful for their partnership and encouragement as we establish ourselves in our new space.<\/p>\n<p>The Kinetic Sculpture Lab exists because of our community of artists, welders, dreamers, builders, movers, makers, and believers. This move wasn\u2019t just about relocating equipment. It was about reaffirming that when this community shows up, it shows up big.<\/p>\n<p>To every single volunteer who lifted, swept, hauled, organized, drove, cleaned, and cheered us on: thank you. Your time, strength, and generosity are the true engine behind the Kinetic Sculpture Lab.<\/p>\n<p>We are excited for what comes next\u00a0because we can\u2019t wait to keep building, creating, and dreaming big together.<\/p>\n<p>For updates and ways to get involved, follow the Kinetic Sculpture Lab on social media or stop by our new home at 1680 Samoa Blvd on Monday afternoons.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/lostcoastoutpost.com\/loco-media\/loco-media\/blog\/post\/44475\/green.png\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"> &#13;<br \/>\n  &#13;<br \/>\n  &#13;<br \/>\n  &#13;<br \/>\n  &#13;<br \/>\n  <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/abb9ff1c7f050a6765086da3b7244960.webp.webp\"\/>&#13;<br \/>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"featurephoto-caption\">Photo by PacOut Green Team.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"&#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; Hooray! | Photo by Matt Filar. ### PREVIOUSLY ### Press release from&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":300620,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[31],"tags":[442,498,499,500,501,156,111,139,69],"class_list":["post-300619","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-arts-and-design","tag-arts","tag-arts-and-design","tag-artsanddesign","tag-artsdesign","tag-design","tag-entertainment","tag-new-zealand","tag-newzealand","tag-nz"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/300619","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=300619"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/300619\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/300620"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=300619"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=300619"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=300619"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
