·ipods/mp3 players
·Computer monitors
·TV’s
·Radios
When: Today through this Friday from 7am until 2pm each day
Where: Today Show Plaza at Rockefeller Center
Why: It’s free, it’s good for the Earth, and it’s an excuse to get outside and enjoy the nice weather!
The School of Visual Arts will be creating a giant art installation throughout the week out of the electronics collected and, when we’re all done, everything will be recycled.
