Recycle Barrel Mosaic

Today was and exciting day - the unveiling of six public recycling bins in public spaces in the town of Twisp, WA (my very cool home). The goal of the project is to reduce waste while establishing a visible symbol of Twisp’s commitment to recycling and public art. Six local artists created original public art pieces from each receptacle through various mediums.

Sponsors are the Town of Twisp, Recycling Roundup, Methow Arts Alliance, Methow Recycles, and Methow Resource Recovery.

Artists and business sponsors for today's barrels include:

Steve Ward for Blue Star Coffee Roasters and Glover Street Market

Tori Karpenko for Twisp Pub and North Cascades Flyfishing

Mary Powell for NCNB and Methow Valley News, and

Nicole Ringgold (me) for KTRT-97.5fm, The Root and Medicine Wheel
