This fantastic assemblage
is one of California's remarkable Twentieth Century Folk
Art Environments. In 1956, Tressa Prisbrey, then nearly
60 years old, started building a fanciful 'village' of
shrines, walkways, sculptures, and buildings from recycled
items and discards from the local dump. She worked for
25 years creating one structure after another to house
her collections. Today, Bottle Village is composed of
13 buildings and 20 sculptures.
