Volunteers go through an orientation and training session. Learn more about the ways to get involved on our Volunteer page. High School Students are welcome!

choose to reuse
We launched our Choose to Reuse outreach in the summer of 2023, sharing information on sustainable consuming practices at Community Events in Ossining, Peekskill, Croton, and Mt. Kisco. We continue to develop the Resources Page in the Choose to Reuse Tab, to help you find places to take all your unwanted items that someone else could use. Please email us if you are in the Reuse business and would like to be listed. Thanks!

Less Waste = More Art!
Our warehouse in Peekskill, NY, is a place to donate, shop and be inspired by an ever-changing inventory of affordable arts and crafts materials. We always have fabric, notions, yarn, paper, cards, envelopes, markers, crayons, pencils, stencils, stickers, stamps, office supplies and a lot of unexpected things too! Our donations are sourced from a community of eco-conscious people and companies who know the value of their supplies for Creative Reuse. Be prepared to spend some time. You never know what you'll find.
​
DONATING SUPPLIES
Your generous donations of maker material is what makes our store inventory so unique and affordable.
In order to manage our donation flow, our Drive Up Donation Day will be the first Tuesday of every month.
To donate: Drive down the left side of the building to #10. Park right in front and a volunteer will help unload your donation. We track our positive environmental impact by weighing donations and recording by zipcode.
