Adventure Ecology is taking to the sea and setting sail from San Fransisco and heading to Australia. The catch? Their boat is made from water bottles. How cool is that? They are also teaming up with Sculpt the Future Foundation to challenge you to come up with something just as awesome to do with trash.

So get your thinking caps on, brush up on your upcycling and take that trash and turn it into treasure for the SMART Art ‘Trash into Treasure’ competition. Your sculpture, functional item, photograph, video or music could net you fame and fortune, or a winning cash prize, as long as you can show reuse.
