HOW to help

One of our core goals is to create the smallest environmental footprint possible. To that end, we're aiming to stock primarily second-hand art supplies whenever feasible.

Building up this inventory takes time, so we're actively seeking donations of lightly used tools, materials, and supplies (see list below).

If you have items you'd like to give a second life to, think of us! Please email us to arrange a pick-up.
