But if you are not available this Saturday or haven’t put the finishing touches to your masterpiece, don’t worry as the collection centre will be open every Wednesday (4pm to 7pm) and Saturday (1pm to 3pm) until Thursday 30 June 2022.

It’s also important to note if you are a university student, you must present your student ID to register in the category.

The Yalla – Abu Dhabi Life and Abu Dhabi Mall in partnership with SchoolsCompared.com ‘The Art of Recycling’ competition offers you the opportunity to demonstrate your passion for the planet and show off your creative skills and WIN brilliant prizes.

Your stunning artworks will need to infuse creativity, innovation and sustainable practices to produce a single piece of art which can be 2D or 3D sculptures, an installation, architectural piece, A1 or A2 Canvas or an accessory such as a head piece, belt, purse, etc, upcycled from your wardrobe or using recyclable materials.

The great news is that the competition is open to all ages across Abu Dhabi and that can only mean one thing – the competition is going to be fierce, so you will need to channel your inner artistic genius if you want to walk away with any of the prizes.

But before the final results are announced, shortlisted artworks will be showcased in Abu Dhabi Mall for the members of the public to peruse and critique.

To find out all the important details and of course the prizes to be won, check out the terms and conditions here.

We can’t wait to see you!
