Turning Trash Into Treasure
Turning Trash Into Treasure is an environmental art campaign, raising awareness about the waster in our waterways through art.
Creating art out of the trash found in our lakes and water is another way to start a conversation around water conservation.
We have compiled a few ways visitors can engage with this conversation beyond the gallery.
