As you spring clean your studio, set aside your unwanted gently used supplies for The Art Center's Earth Day Artist Swap!
Held in conjunction with our Upcycled exhibition, the Earth Day Artist Swap encourages both recycling and exploration with your art supplies. No money or negotiations are necessary for the swap; just leave what you don't want and take what you do! Be sure to bring a reusable bag to "shop" the used supplies.
For a list of accepted materials for the Artist Swap, check out Scraplanta's Material Donation Guide here: https://www.scraplanta.org/donate#anchors-mim59xax6
We will also accept the following:
-Organization supplies, like bins or small drawers. No large, heavy furniture please!
-Studio supplies: easels, clay tools, etc
-Display equipment for art shows (again, no large, heavy furniture. You can leave information if you have a something like a spare vendor tent you’re trying to get rid of).
If you are unsure about an item, please call us at 770-623-8448
Drop offs of unwanted supplies can begin as early as 3 PM on Thursday April 23 at the Annex (Suite 606, right next door to the main building), but the official event is held on Saturday.
While you're here, check out Scraplanta's recycled papermaking workshop! Accepting students ages 9 and older, this workshop is a fun and affordable way to learn how to make paper from your old junk mail. Great to do with a friend, by yourself, or with the whole family!
