We Know What Love Is
- Words by Peppermint
Trash Amour sounds like the way Oscar the Grouch would dish out romance. It is, however, the latest exhibition hosted by Reverse Garbage to help celebrate loved-up February with attitude and edge. This romantic, handmade and junky art show will feature the work of over 20 local artists, crafters and designers who all work with salvaged and recycled materials. Pieces include fine art, jewellery, sculpture, fashion accessories, cards, home wares and more. Join them on Saturday February 18th 6-9pm for an opening night of entertainment, drinks and late night shopping. Oui oui!
