Life gets wild (& messy) – it’s inevitable.

That’s why Glad® Black Bag is turning trash into works of art. In this case, celebrity trash. In turn, we’re encouraging you to rethink what is done with the items that get broken amidst your everyday -- or not so everyday -- wild life.

As proud partners of Keep America Beautiful, we’ve helped clean-up communities for 27 years. Now this Earth Month, we’re auctioning original pieces of upcycled art made from remnants of wild life moments.

Glad has partnered with acclaimed artist Jason Mecier to create custom artwork from the would-be trash of Hollywood stars, including actress Amy Smart, actor Jesse Eisenberg, reality star Lauren Conrad, actress Emmanuelle Chriqui of “Entourage,” Parks & Recreation’s Nick Offerman, actress Megan Mullally, Dancing with the Stars’ Chelsie Hightower, and “iCarly’s” Nathan Kress. In addition, we’ve tapped Great American Cleanup™ volunteers to submit unique finds from cleanup events across the country.

Bid on these original works of upcycled art between April 16 and 26, 2012. Auction proceeds benefit Keep America Beautiful and its mission to engage individuals to take greater responsibility for improving their community environments.

No matter how wild life gets, cleanups are in the bag with Glad Black Bag.

Get Wild, Get Creative and Upcycle, Bid Today. It’s a small step we can all take to waste less… even us wild ones!
