Kirsten,
I don't know about exhibit designers in New England who are working with
recycled materials, but you might be interested in checking out what the
Science Museum of Minnesota has been doing to make our new traveling
exhibition Wild Music as "green" as possible. Materials they're using
include Plyboo (bamboo), marmoleum, sorghum board, and low VOC adhesives.
You can find out more at an ASTC conference session (Green Exhibits
Showcase), Saturday, October 28, 4:00-5:15pm, led by Roger Barrett of SMM.
Others will be there sharing their work, too. 
Wendy
