Join members of the Montgomery County 'Beyond Plastics' group to learn about the environmental impact of single-use plastics, and how you can reduce their use. In the Multi-Purpose Room.

Test your knowledge of the impact these products have on the environment, be wowed as an artist turns plastic bags into art, and get an understanding of the questions surrounding bioplastics. We'll also showcase available alternatives to single-use plastics like shopping bags, water bottles, food wrap, laundry and dish detergent, personal care items, and more.
