Join us for February’s Key Biscayne Citizen Scientist Project lecture, which was the first installment of a series of online workshops that mashes up recycling plastics, plastic pollution, beach cleanups, public art, and poetry!

Plastic Poetry is the latest project from Free Plastic & O, Miami Poetry Festival. Plastic Poetry combines a virtual workshop about recycling plastic with a poetry workshop from O, Miami. Also, you will be invited to an upcoming beach cleanup on Key Biscayne where the collected plastic pollution will be recycled in to 5 inch tall letters to create plastic poems to be installed on the facades of the Miami Dade County buildings.

This workshop was free and open to the public, and was held on Zoom.

Free Plastic is a nonprofit organization that farms plastic pollution from our local environment and upcycles it into usable objects and works of art. Plastic and plastic pollution are all around us, and Free Plastic harvests this powerful manufacturing material directly from the environment, then converts it into usable objects to cherish through the ages.

Plastic Poetry is in partnership with O, Miami, Key Biscayne Community Foundation, Key Biscayne Citizen Scientist Project, and Miami-Dade County.
