ABOUT

The TRASHed :: Art Of Recycling campaign is an ongoing recycling education program that redefines the way people view recycling and trash collection.

Global Inheritance arranges the artistic redesign of recycling bins, and then integrates the bins at events to encourage recycling and provide additional ways to view the artwork. Live paintings often occur at events, while bins designed and created by artists beforehand are also featured. Through a network of over 7,000 artists, TRASHed appoints the right talent to match each event's aesthetic. Canvases are not limited, as TRASHed :: Art Of Recycling artists also design bottles, compost bins, and oversized recycling containers in addition to recycling bins.

ARTISTS

Just a few examples of previous recycling bin artists are: Hunter S. Thompson, Fugazi, Mearone, pro-skateboarder Bob Burnquist, rock musicians Blink-182, The Cobra Snakes, Mike Metzger, Volcom, RVCA, Jodie Nelson, Bigfood, Granddaddy, Freddi C., and so many more...
