Art from Trash

Exhibition in Long Gallery

Presented by Resource Work Cooperative

Art From Trash is an annual community event that encourages the use of discarded materials in the production of visual art. The exhibition is open to all ages and is a great opportunity for many first time and emerging artists. Art From Trash is instrumental in promoting creative reuse of post-consumer materials, minimizing the inappropriate disposal of limited resources. Art From Trash is a great platform for artists to launch themselves into the public arena. The exhibition is non-selective and for a small entry fee, artists receive exposure to a large number of the public, as well as many from the local arts community. In recent years Art From Trash has included a People’s Choice Award, a Trash Rat Youth Award, for entrants 15 years and under, and a Mojo Wearable Art Award.
