Request For Color Plastic Bags

I need plastic bags; produce bags, grocery bags, newspaper bags all sorts of plastic bags wanted.

If you you have a stash of plastic bags and are willing to part with your bounty of bags, I would be most grateful. I can use them for an installation project. I am weaving plastic bags and 500 feet of hollow braid polyethylene rope into Prayer Flags.

Recycle those bags into art. Accepting donations at Sky Garden Gallery 150 Bay Street, PH9, Jersey City NJ 07302
