repurposing exhibition

The Upcycle Exhibition showcases 
over 100 repurposed works
from local artists and creators!

 

 

All entries must be made of at least 80% recycled materials but beyond that, can be of any medium.

 

Our exhibitors include established local artists through to community based creators who may not have exhibited before. Entries are everything from furniture to clothing, jewellery to house-wares and many beautiful hanging art and sculptures.

 

All standard entries are for sale, although we do have a few "Showcase" works which are exceptional examples of Upcycling but not for sale. Our purchase page explains how visitors can buy works.

 

The exhbition will be spread over three galleries. Two are inside the Earthwise building itself which can be entered via the courtyard or through the main entry to the West. Our outdoor gallery will be in the courtyard. There will be lots of signage and maps available on the day. 

 

We have a huge range of fantatsic sustainable prizes on offer, all kindly donated to support this project by our incredible prize donors. Check them out here!

 

Although we have a panel of official judges for the main prizes, YOU can also vote in the "People's Choice" award and select your favourite entry.

 

The prizes will be awarded for the best ideas and our categories include:

 

• Art and decor 

• Clothing, jewelery and accessories

• Furniture + large household items

• Small items (eg: tabletop kitchen or office items)

• Unrubbish

 

This page shows just a few of our 100 entries.
