Local artists using recycled materials in their work will be featured this month during an exhibit, “Discarded: Recycled Items as Art,” at Pine Camp Arts and Community Center in Richmond.

A reception to meet the artists will be held from 6 to 8 p.m. Friday, May 5, at Spotlight Gallery at Pine Camp, 4901 Old Brook Road.

The exhibit, timed to celebrate National Recycling Month, is to show how what is considered waste can become a work of art and address environmental issues through imagination and creativity.

During the reception, representatives from local waste management agencies will answer questions and talk with people about recycling.

The exhibition will be on view through May 26.

Spotlight Gallery, which is part of the Richmond Department of Parks, Recreation and Community Facilities, is open 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Friday and 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Saturday.

The exhibition and reception are free and open to the public.
