GreenArt Exhibition Showcases Student Art Made From Plastic Waste at Subharathi Vidyalaya
The ZeroPlastic Movement organized the GreenArt Exhibition at Kuli/Assadduma Subharathi Vidyalaya, an exhibition featuring creative exhibits made from discarded polythene, plastic, and other natural materials. The project engaged grade 3 school students at the school as its participants.
The GreenArt Exhibition was designed to demonstrate how waste materials, particularly polythene and plastic, can be repurposed into creative works of art. By involving young school students, the project aimed to introduce environmental awareness at an early age through a hands-on and visual approach.

The project brought environmental learning into the school setting in a format suited to young learners.

The GreenArt Exhibition provided a simple yet effective platform for this kind of learning, bringing the subject of plastic waste into a familiar school environment.
The GreenArt Exhibition reflects the ZeroPlastic Movement’s commitment to reaching diverse age groups and communities with its message of reducing plastic waste. By working with primary-level school students, the project e…
