About the "Recycled Art Exhibition

The Recycled Art Exhibition started in 2015 with the idea of "making people more aware of recycling. The exhibition is a space where people can learn more about recycling and the importance of the future environment by using materials that are no longer in use and allowing the creators to breathe creative life into them as works of art.
