Bash the Trash

Bash the Trash Environmental Arts builds, performs and educates with musical instruments made from recycled and reused materials. Formed in 1988 by husband-and-wife creative team John Bertles & Carina Piaggio, BTT consists of 35+ performers across the US and around the world. When you purchase a product from BTT, you help support our environmental education efforts with children, families and educators. BTT works with artist TB Ward to create fun and cool designs, but we also have our old-fashioned B&W designs just for S&G. Show your support for science and music proudly with a BTT product!
