ecomaine’s Recycling is a Work of Art Painting Contest

Recycling is a Work of Art

Our Recycling is a Work of Art painting contest will relaunch in the spring of 2026!

Over the years, dozens of artists have turned recycling roll-off containers into works of art, making communities all over Maine more beautiful and drawing attention to the value, joy, and community-building spirit of recycling.

We look forward to relaunching this content in the spring of this year. Be sure to join our mailing list to get all the details!

See below for examples of past years’ works of art!

  • People pose in front of an Ecomaine silver bullet painted by a local artist
  • A group of people pose on top of and beside an ecomaine Silver Bullet, painted by a local artist, that reads Recycle for the Lifecycle
