You may have read about our UpCycling mission here, on the UpCycling Central page. A big part of that effort is exactly what one of our friends and partners, rePurposes does, and, they’ve been working hard on launching: collecting and sorting materials, getting the word out and putting their site together. They were with us at the Rock the Block Festival, and now, they’ve officially launched their new site! Check it out here: rePurposes, Creative ReUse Art Studio
Here’s some of the cool stuff they had at Rock the Block and currently have in stock:
(YES! You saw what you thought you saw! RUBBER DOTS and FUR!) You can check what they have on hand here: Stock.
The folks at rePurposes have been at this for a long time – decades, in fact, and have a huge list of donors, types of materials and supplies available, and have a good sense of how to get it into artist’s and educator’s hands. For The Brickyard it’s a match made in heaven – we’ve been working on putting this partnership together for, well, basically since we learned about what they’ve been doing, and can’t wait to see what the future brings! For now, though, the site is a work in progress… don’t worry if there are some loose ends, they’re working hard at tying them all up.
They’re starting off by offering an open-studio type sale on one Sunday a month, and you can find all the details on the site. “Seek and ye shall find!”
Stop by, stock up and MAKE STUFF!
Keep making stuff. Take care of people, play nice and clean up after yourselves.
