GLEAN exhibit challenges ideas about waste.

Inspiration often arrives in unexpected packages. See how five local artists – Carolyn Drake, Liz Grotyohann, Benjamin Mefford, Brittany Rudolf and Eduardo Cruz Torres - transformed an unpredictable stream of trash from the Metro Central transfer station into art. 

GLEAN is a partnership between Recology, an employee-owned integrated resource recovery and recycling company, Metro, the regional government that guides the region’s garbage and recycling systems, and Crackedpots.

The exhibition runs from August 3 until August 25; Friday through Sunday, 12 until 5 p.m.
