Bring your clean plastic waste (#1 and #2 only) to run through Thing Thing’s micro plastic factory and watch your trash transform into art. Any colorful plastic will work—all colors are welcome, and the more the merrier. Recommended for ages seven to adult.Part of MOCAD's Art As Social Force InitiativeInspired by Mike Kelley’s Mobile Homestead, MOCAD has embarked on a multi-year examination of artists who seek to establish participatory and socially transformative art. Known primarily as social practice, its practitioners freely blur the lines among art making, performance, political activism, community organizing, environmentalism, and investigative journalism, creating a deeply participatory art that often flourishes outside the gallery and museum system.
