Individuals, groups and schools used their creativity to make works of art through recycling, with their pieces now able to be viewed.
The exhibition opened at the Oberon Community Centre on Wednesday and will remain open until Saturday morning.
Artists are encouraged to collect their work on Saturday afternoon or by arrangement.
This annual competition is run by NetWaste and facilitated by local councils all over the Central West.
The section winners will go on to the Sims Metal Management Regional Exhibition, which will be held in Oberon at the Malachi Gilmore Hall from July 29 to August 17.
Over the years Oberon has been very successful at a regional level, picking up several firsts as well as winning the Herbie Award for excellence.
