Sign up and Paint a Bin! Head down for a day of fun and creativity as you paint bins for the community’s benefit. All bins are brand new and materials will be provided.
Paint-A-Bin was conceived with the intention to cultivate the habit of keeping the Telok Blangah neighbourhood clean by placing more bins at the HDB void decks of the Telok Blangah estate. In light of this, we felt that dustbins can also contribute to beautifying our landscape by personalizing them with our favourite colours and shapes. Hence, the painting of bins not only serves to make our neighbourhood more vibrant, but also allows volunteers to express their creativity through painting and encourages their artistic confidence. Furthermore, residents can find value in personalized dustbins as compared to regular ones and will be more likely to take proper care of the bins that will be placed at their respective HDBs. This event also hopes to be able to bridge the distance between the community and the Arts.
This event is held in conjunction with the Telok Blangah CC Youth Executive Committee 20th Term’s Biennal General Meeting.
This event takes place at Telok Blangah Community Centre on 27th Sept from 9am to 5.30pm.
