More Art, Less Waste Program

ReCreate provides Waste Reduction education to over 10,000 students annually.

We mesh high tech materials with "junk" - reuse items from local businesses, to stretch our programs to more students.

Art and Maker Studio

The Art and Maker Studio is ReCreate’s airy, spacious home base. We host birthday parties, field trips, kids’ workshops, as well as classes for adults. We also offer studio time by reservation or drop-in for artists and crafters of all ages. We supply the super cool diverted materials, you supply the creativity!

Education

ReCreate is home to the GeniusMobile. It is a STEAM maker education program on wheels bringing hands-on project-based learning to schools in our region. We also host Family STEAM Nights!

Additionally, each year we bring Sort Smart, Recycle Right waste reduction education to 10,000 local students. Our pre-school and kindergarten visits, as well as the field trips we host at our Art and Maker Studio, also promote the “3 R’s”: reduce, reuse, recycle.

Craft Thrift Store

ReCreate collects perfectly good, incredibly cool—but no longer needed—materials from local businesses and sells them to artists, crafters, sewers, knitters, costume-makers, artists, and anyone with a project. Our goods are so inspiring you may never walk into another commercial art supply store again—especially since our prices are so very low!

Community Events

Look for our colorful, can’t-miss-it ReCreate van or GeniusMobile at fairs, festivals, and special events held by local schools, libraries, parks, and more. We set up a table, provide materials (diverted, of course) and tools for a free, on-the-spot art-making experience. Armed with glue guns, good humor, and boundless creativity, our fun facilitators can bring out the artistic genius in anyone. Be sure to stop by!
