That’s Rubbish!
Are you also fed up with looking at ugly wheelie bins and feel it’s time to brighten up our town.
Join the bin revolution and take part in our Harwich Festival of the Arts 2022 competition at the same time.
To take part in the competition email a picture of your decorated bin together with your name and address to
chris@harwichfestival.com by Friday 17th June.
The pictures will go on display in a virtual gallery on our website. There will be prizes for the 3 most original and
beautiful bins.
Here some bin decorating tips from Anna Baria.
It’s actually very simple to paint your wheelie, all you need is a bit of preparation and the right paints. Make sure you use
acrylic paint as it is plastic based and will adhere to the plastic bin ( Well Worth A £ , in town do some fabulous acrylic paint in the craft section).
Please make sure you leave the bin lid it’s original colour so
that the refuse collectors can still identify the type of bin.
