There are still a few spots available for the kids.
The BEAT program supports the Waste to Art initiative through several therapeutic workshops to engage the community in exploring how we can use waste in a mindful and creative way.
Waste to Art is an exciting community art competition and exhibition showcasing reused and recyclable waste materials initiated by Murrumbidgee Council.
This innovative challenge invites schools, community groups and individuals of all skill levels to transform rubbish into art and design.
Participants will have the opportunity to be a part of an art exhibition in the Murrumbidgee Council towns of Coleambally, Darlington Point and Jerilderie.
Children's workshops are held tomorrow and next Thursday, April 20, from 10am to 3pm both days.
The cost is $20.
Adult workshops are also coming up in May.
Go to www.muddyduck-townhub.com.au to learn more.
Start collecting materials including items from around home and shed (eg. corks, egg cartons, old jewellery, beads, bottletops), items from the natural environment and gardens such as wood and twigs, old books, food packaging, fabric, old doilies, materials, buttons and even small old rusty bits.

Do you have cans and bottles that can be recycled?
The Coly Bowling Club have containers at the back of the club.
If you just throw them out rather than recycling them, please drop them off to the club, so bowls members can recycle them and gain much needed funds.
