Simba 🐾 and I explored the quirky and wonderfully imaginative world of Patrick Amiot Junk Art in Sebastopol, California! This colorful outdoor gallery transforms ordinary neighborhood streets into a vibrant open-air museum, where recycled metal and found objects become playful characters filled with charm and personality.

As you stroll down Florence Avenue, you’ll find whimsical sculptures guarding front yards, towering atop garages, lounging on porches, and posing proudly along sidewalks. From oversized musicians and cartoonish workers to silly animals and sci-fi creations, each piece tells its own story — all crafted from upcycled materials rescued from the junk pile.

What makes this stop extra special? The community participation. Residents proudly showcase these sculptures in their yards, helping turn the entire neighborhood into a living art experience. It’s creative, funky, sustainable, and wonderfully weird!
