📣 Did that random hobby you wanted to try never take off? Maybe you had to buy a whole pack of supplies to get the one thing you needed? Or have you ever way overestimated how much you would need for a project?

Regardless of how it got there, those art supplies on your shelf are gathering dust and cluttering your space. So bring them to us and take home something you’ll use! Anything left at the end of the night will be stored by VC Artists Against ICE for use in future events and workshops.

Come build community with us and remember to bring some boxes or bags to take home your new supplies!
