SM Supermalls’ “Art From All” initiative was cited for transforming sustainability into an immersive and participatory mall experience.

Launched in May 2025, the campaign encouraged shoppers to donate plastic waste, which was then converted into large-scale public art installations displayed inside malls.

Sustainability infused

Rather than simply promoting environmental awareness, the initiative integrated sustainability directly into the mall experience by making it interactive and community-driven.
