The next phase of AUK students' participation in the REUSE competition will take place at the Avenues from January 9-11, 10am-10pm. The public will be able to vote for their favorite artwork made from recycled materials. Twelve winners of AUK's own REUSE Exhibition will have their artwork compete against artwork from other local university students. Attached is the poster for the REUSE Recycled Art Competition @ The Avenues, in English and Arabic.

I titled this photo "Workers’ Beds for the Night, The Avenues, Al-Rai, Kuwait," and entered it into a journal that was to be published here in Kuwait. My title was censored and changed to just "Workers' Beds for the Night." They did not even ask me. I guess I am just shocked that they even published it.... the Avenues is currently the biggest mall in Kuwait (although I've heard they are building a bigger one). It is also one of the newest and richest... these men, workers at the Avenues and mostly all Bangladeshi, were all sleeping directly on the concrete, with only a few sheets of a newspaper as any comfort, in the underground parking around midnight...
