Beaconhouse Jubilee Campus Middle Section recently organized a vibrant and thought-provoking exhibition titled ‘From Waste to Art’, centered around the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) — SDG 13 (Climate Action) and SDG 12 (Responsible Consumption and Production).
The exhibition served as a powerful platform for students to showcase their creativity while emphasizing the importance of environmental stewardship and sustainable living. Through innovative artistic expression, students transformed discarded and recyclable materials into stunning works of art, reinforcing the message of responsible consumption and waste reduction.
A wide variety of artwork was displayed, crafted from recycled resources such as paper, plastic and glass bottles, leftover cartons, boxes, used crates, and discarded wood. The students demonstrated imaginative techniques of reuse and recycling, highlighting their commitment to protecting the environment and promoting sustainable practices.
The event was honored by the presence of distinguished guest artists, including Aliya Yousuf, Assistant Professor at IVS, known for her multi-disciplinary exploration of harmony with nature; Zabad Anwer, a Karachi-based visual artist blending art, design, and storytelling; and Aliya Faizi, recognized for her unique fusion of abstraction, figuration, and calligraphy reflecting human existence and spirituality.
Speaking on the occasion, Ms. Tabinda Raza , School Principal, stated:
“I’m thrilled to see our students embracing sustainability and creativity. This exhibition is a testament to their talent and dedication to environmental stewardship.”
Ms. Humaira Shahab, Headmistress, added:
“‘From Waste to Art’ serves as a poignant reminder of the urgent need for environmental protection, encouraging participants to reassess their daily habits and make conscious choices towards reduced consumption, reuse, and recycling. This initiative aligns with our mission to foster sustainability and environmental awareness among students, empowering them to become responsible citizens.”
The exhibition was also attended by Mr. Ahsan Afzal, Regional Director South, and Ms. Tasneem Karbalai, Manager Education Operations, from the Beaconhouse Regional Office.
Beaconhouse Jubilee Campus expressed gratitude to parents, teachers, and staff members whose support contributed to the success of the event.
Looking ahead, Beaconhouse Jubilee Campus plans to expand this initiative further by collaborating with local communities and institutions, continuing its commitment to nurturing environmentally responsible citizens and promoting sustainability through education.
