Seven South Australia’s schools, 15 teachers and more than 150 young students have contributed to an art exhibition inspired by the Adelaide Festival’s Australian premier of The Plastic Bag Store installation.by Brooklyn-based artist and filmmaker Robin Frohardt.
Many teachers and students are passionate about the protecting the environment and understand that too often the way plastics are produced, used and discard results in wasted resources, causing pollution, litter and harm to wildlife, including marine life.
