Creative reuse Center: at recycling art supply resources

One of the recycled and cunning resources that arose much during this year and last year of impressive Summit was the center of creative reuse. But what is a creative reuse Center and how can you find one near you?

Creative reuse centers are companies usually non-profit, and its mission is to divert potential sources of art from the landfill and make them accessible to artists and artisans. It can mean conventional things as paintings and tape or art less obvious supplies such as samples of cabinet doors and wine corks.

They take donations from individuals and companies, and then sort everything, cheap price and make it available to the general public. Many of the centres of creative reuse also do community outreach to teach people how to make recycled art. The Centre that only beginning recently here in Atlanta houses classes of recycled art in Wonderroot, our creative community center. In fact, I just taught a class for them making recycled art!

Unfortunately, there is no any central announcement that I know for creative reuse centers, although if anyone knows of one, please share in the comments! SCRAP in San Francisco has a list of other creative resources.

I think that a centre of creative reuse near you there is? A quick search just might surprise you! You can also try Googling your city and the phrase "creative reuse Center". Go for a couple of different names: Center for creative reuse or scrap. SCRAP is a species of situation of the franchise that began in Portland, Oregon and is now in very few cities throughout the country.
