It will be trash to treasure all over again in a free arts workshop at the Whanganui Resource Recovery Centre this month.
Artist and teacher Esther Topfer is looking for young people aged 9 to 16 years for a week-long creative frenzy in the Harakeke Room at the centre. Topfer will be assisted by artist Ruby Fleming.
From 10am to 2.30pm on January 18 to 22 they will be busy revamping the centre's sculpture garden.
With some colourful wall murals, it helped Whanganui win a Keep New Zealand Beautiful award in 2019.
A large metal sculpture is to be added there.
