Earth Day's Trash Art Competition

Submit your artwork here for a chance to win $500!

Students have an opportunity to create art out of trash.  This competition challenges students to look at their trash differently.  Can we reuse a lot of what we throw away?  Can we recycle it?  This competition will create a new legacy at PPCC.  We will create art out of trash! We will reduce the waste that goes to the landfill through art & reverence for our land, air, water and all living things.
