ReuseConex October 17, 2010

The Reuse Alliance is hosting the first annual ReuseConex, a national convention and expo recognizing the importance of reuse. Running from Monday, Oct. 18 until Wednesday, Oct. 20, the conference and expo will be held at the North Raleigh Hilton, located at 3415 Wake Forest Road.

ReuseConex is attracting nationwide attention from government leaders, reuse-related product and service providers, non-profit organizations, artists, designers and architects. The reuse movement promotes a cleaner environment and a greener economy through reuse of items for the same or repurposed function.

The event includes a re-fashion show; re-art exhibit and sale featuring work from reclaimed material artists; keynote speakers such as Garth Johnson, author of 1000 Ideas for Creative Reuse; and a film screening.

Tickets are available for full-conference, one day or expo only on the ReuseConex website, or at http://ReuseConex.org/register. All conference meals, sessions and expo hall entrance and activities are included in the full conference ticket rate.
