The Glass Recycling Company (TGRC) called for all graffiti artists to submit their art for its Art for Glass Graffiti Competition in order to stand a chance to have their art displayed on glass recycling banks in Johannesburg!
Artists who are passionate for art and love being creative and love expressing themselves through graffiti, were encouraged to enter the competition during April and May 2019. The competition proved very popular and had over 30 entries, making the judging quite a difficult task for the TGRC team! Not only do finalists win the chance to have their art showcased on glass banks in Joburg, the top three finalists will also walk away with cash prizes worth R 60 000 with the 1 st prize being R30 000, 2 nd prize R20 000 and 3 rd prize R10 000.
The campaign objective is to create an awareness of glass recycling in communities and get people actively recycling their glass bottles and jars at their local glass banks. By making some of the glass banks, more colourful with art, they will be more visible people to find!
TGRC believes in the infinite potential of glass to make a real and positive contribution to society. At TGRC we are committed to prove that glass recycling is worth the effort!
