LNPB National Plastic Quilt Project: Call for Artists

Calling all creative minds and environmentally conscious people! Leave No Plastic Behind is asking outstanding artists, community members and celebrities to participate in the National Plastic Quilt Project by designing a square to be auctioned at our fall fundraiser.

For the National Plastic Quilt Project, participants design a 12” square out of plastic materials that are usually thrown away. In the past,people have chosen to give plastic bottle caps a new life, woven plastic bags, and even sewn together various collected items to create an original piece of art.

Ideas can be found at:

Proceeds from this fundraiser will contribute to Create Plenty, the new non-profit organization formed in support of LNPB and other projects that will promote community engagement and single use plastic reduction.

To design a square, simply reply email Cheryl at [email protected] and we will send you further specifications and information. The deadline for making a square is October 15, 2009. We look forward to seeing your unique contribution!
