Summer 2022 qathet ART partnered up with Let’s Talk Trash to divert shoreline plastic from our waste stream in a Salish Sea Art Glean project.
We held an Art Challenge inviting folks to repurpose stuff from your own beach gleaning or the Oceans Plastic Depot at Augusta Recyclers.
Please email qathetart@gmail.com to learn the required best drop off and diversion practices for the Ocean Plastic Depot. Or contact the Let’s Talk Trash team at letstalktrashteam@gmail.com to support our regional champions of shoreline cleanup!
Send us before and after photos photo of your creations. We will be offering prizes and exhibition opportunities.
We will continue to post materials found from site specific shoreline cleanups and inspiration photos.
