The History of the Green Machine
The "Green Machine" is a 1974 Chevy Step Van which has been converted into a mobile museum, classroom, and interactive art exhibit.
The vehicle was purchased in 2016 by Conservation Carnivale Ring Leader Endion and her father to create a tiny house together from it. Shortly after acquiring it, Endion's father died unexpectedly, and they never completed the project.
Through processing her grief and a diagnosis of climate anxiety, Endion found a new vision for the vehicle. With endless love & support from family and community, The Green Machine came into being and is ever evolving.
Endion says:
"I went back and forth for a long time about keeping it, continuing the project (it took 5 years to build it to this point) but ultimately, I wanted to honor our family's tenacious spirit of 'we can do anything.' My parents are heroes to me and pioneers in many ways. My dad would be so tickled to see what it has become and what it is doing."
