Recyclia
22 – 25 July

Dunedin (Tuesday, 16 July 2013) – As part of the Cadbury Chocolate Carnival, Keep Dunedin Beautiful will once again be hosting Recyclia – an art competition where participants make artwork out of material that would otherwise be recycled. The categories range from under eight years of age right through to adult.

There is still a chance to put in a free entry, but registrations must be received by Thursday 18 July. Registration packs are available from the DCC Customer Services Centre in the Civic Centre, or by phoning 03 477 4000.

The art work will be displayed in the foyer on the ground floor of the Dunedin City Library from Monday 22 July to Thursday 25 July. The prizegiving will be held at 3pm on Thursday 25 July. Although two judges will choose the winners for each category, there is also a people’s choice award.

Theatre Group
29 July - 30 August

From Monday 29 July a professional theatre group will visit primary schools passing on messages of minimising waste, taking personal responsibility for waste, and reusing and recycling beverage containers.

The group is supported by Keep Dunedin Beautiful. The group includes director Sara Georgie and three actors – Abby Howells, Heidi Geissler and Helen Grant. A schedule of the performances is available from Keep Dunedin Beautiful.
