Twenty-six cork-topped glass bottles in two sizes, two stainless forceps, and thirty-six printed labels. Children gather on the walk, sort at the table, and build a classroom cabinet of curiosities that grows all year. Each find gets its own bottle, its own cork, and its own labeled card, with a line for what it is, the date, and where it was found. That is where curatorial practice begins: deciding what to collect, what to preserve, and what to leave where it was.
