Public events and festivals Reverse Garbage workshops can be designed around any theme and accommodate your requirements.

(make a difference) Centre and 'Junk Love' exhibition As well as providing many valuable services from the Reverse Garbage facility, we have also opened up a centre dedicated to showcasing the works of local sustainable artists and designers. This space follows the same principles of Reverse Garbage as a not-for-profit community organisation. It has become a valuable resource for the local community and a great opportunity for established and emerging artists and designers within Australia to access the public market through an environment that supports their cause. As well as now having this fantastic space to showcase local talent, we also have an art exhibition called 'Junk Love' which has become enormously popular receiving publicity and nationwide rave reviews. This then further promotes a future with green design and gives local people an opportunity to share their ideas in a gallery environment that is encouraging of all ideas big or small.     |
