The dominant argument about the work of Everyday Makers states that apathy encourages community involvement in solving public problems. This qualitative case study aims to explore the workings of the Everyday Makers practice in the case of Malang Garbage Bank management. Unlike the previous argument, this study found an enthusiastic attitude that encouraged the community to work together in handling the waste problem in Malang city. The enthusiastic attitude that drives the community to work with the government and the private sector is the philosophy of Ojrek Bareng which is based on Arek Culture. This philosophy was reflected in the expression of the community in dealing with waste problems, namely sengkuyung seduluran (brotherhood spirit), ewuh pakewuh (uneasy feelings) and tanpo pamrih (sincere). This study debates the workings of Everyday Makers, that what drives the work of Everyday Makers in solving public problems is public's apathy towards the government. However, this study found that Ojrek Bareng as acommunity enthusiasm in solving waste problems through the Malang Garbage Bank. The practical implications of this study were the governance of public issue.

Abstrak
Argumen dominan tentang bekerjanya Everyday Makers menyebutkan bahwa sikap apati mendorong keterlibatan masyarakat dalam menyelesaikan permasalahan publik. Studi kasus kualitatif ini bertujuan mengeksplorasi bekerjanya praktik Everyday Makers dalam kasus pengelolaan Bank Sampah Malang. Berbeda dengan argumen sebelumnya, studi ini menemukan sikap antusias yang mendorong masyarakat untuk bekerjasama dalam penanganan masalah sampah di Kota Malang. Sikap antusias yang mendorong masyarakat untuk bekerjasama dengan pemerintah dan swasta adalah filosofi Ojrek Bareng yang dilandasi oleh Budaya Arek. Filosofi ini tercermin dari ungkapan masyarakat dalam menangani permasalahan sampah yaitu sengkuyung seduluran (semangat persaudaraan), ewuh pakewuh (perasaan tidak enak) dan tanpo pamrih (tanpa pamrih). Studi ini mendebat bekerjanya Everyday Makers, bahwa yang mendorong bekerjanya Everyday Makers dalam menyelesaikan permasalahan publik adalah sikap apati masyarakat terhadap pemerintah. Namun, studi ini menemukan bahwa Ojrek Bareng sebagai bentuk antusiasme masyarakat dalam menyelesaikan masalah sampah lewat Bank Sampah Malang. Implikasi praktis dari studi ini adalah tata kelola masalah publik.
