Project History

The International Plastic Quilt Project began as Leave No Plastic Behind (LNPB) in 2007. It was a simple exercise among new and old friends and coworkers in Portland, Oregon. They found a local cafe willing to hang art created out of single-use plastic, then sent out a call for artists and others to live plastic-free for the same three month time period. Since then there have been more art exhibits, two per year, involving people from around the country. After the project went to Mexico in 2010, it became the International Plastic Quilt Project!
