Recycled Art Competition

Create a work of art from recycled materials and raise £400 for your charity or school

The recycling centre in Port Solent will be relaunched in May 2011 after a period of redevelopment to improve its' capacity for recycling. To raise awareness of recycling facilities across the city, we are inviting all charities and schools based in Portsmouth to create an artwork from recycled materials.

All short listed artworks will be displayed at a public exhibition and two prizes will be awarded:


Judges’ choice and Peoples’ choice

Both winners will receive £400 for their charity or fundraising appeal and the artwork will be put on permanent display at the recycling centre in Port Solent. The competition is being sponsored by Hopkins Recycling Ltd, who manage the recycling centre on behalf of Portsmouth City Council.
