♻️ COMMUNITY CALL-OUT: WE NEED YOUR RECYCLABLES! 🧵🎭

These school holidays, we’ve been busy running workshops to create puppets for the upcoming exhibition Out of the Pilbara Puppets in Karratha and the workshops have been a huge success! 🎉

While we’ve been collecting recycled materials at the Gallery, we’re now running low and need even more materials to keep the creativity going!

If you have any of the following lying around at home, we would absolutely love to give them a second life:

🧴 Plastic containers
📦 Cardboard & boxes
🧵 Old fabric, sheets or textiles
🥔 Clean food/milk/fruit packaging
♻️ Other clean recyclable materials
✨ Anything unusual that you think could be turned into a puppet!

You can drop materials off at Courthouse Gallery+Studio tomorrow, or send us a message and we can arrange to pick them up between tomorrow, Saturday or Sunday.

Every little bit helps us keep these workshops going and gives these everyday materials a whole new life! 💛

Thank you for helping us bring these puppets to life! 🎭♻️
