#Trashart Collage Hang at The Pop-Hop!

Transform everyday garbage into a work of art. Come join us at the Pop-Hop Book Co-op to create a playful collage with things that collect around our homes—junk mail, shipping materials, product packaging and more. Artist April Dyer-Morton is your guide as we tear through trash, play with color, pattern and texture—and glue down what we like—to help expand our vision of what waste can become.

What to bring:

🗑️ Your own clean trash (optional, see helpful tips) or use some of ours

🧠 An open mind - we are recalibrating our ideas of what art can be

💧Water bottle - staying hydrated is important!

Helpful tips for cultivating cool trash for your Junk Journal:

♻️ Collect wrappers, receipts, or other paper waste when traveling or just out and about running errands.

📩 Look inside your mail; some have cool patterns on the inside, especially privacy envelopes

✂️ Remove address labels or other identifying information you don’t want strangers to see

🧽 Clean off anything smelly or sticky from food packaging
