Garbage Goat

The Garbage Goat in Riverfront Park was designed by Sister Paula Turnbull, a Catholic nun, for Expo ‘74 as a recycling/environmental statement. This steel goat sculpture will “eat” small pieces of trash with the aid of its vacuuming digestive system. Don’t throw your garbage on the ground; feed it to the Garbage Goat.
