Art and Craft Supplies Pop-Up Events
August 19 @ 2:00 pm – August 22 @ 8:00 pm
These pop-up exchange events are all about saving quality, new or gently-used art, craft, school, and upcycling supplies from being wasted. Johnson County community members and local organizations can donate quality, new, or gently-used items they no longer need or pick up items at no cost that they have a use for!
These events are meant to be a no-cost exchange space to keep quality materials in use and out of the landfill. Whether you have a new or partially used container of craft paint or surplus yarn from a sweater knitting project, this program is for you.
Donate quality supplies you no longer need on Wednesday, August 19 (2 to 6 p.m.) and on Thursday, August 20 (2 to 6 p.m.) at the East Side Recycling Center’s Environmental Education Center, 2401 Scott Blvd. SE, Iowa City.
Note: Event staff and volunteers reserve the right to refuse items that are damaged or not in good condition for reuse. The Donation Event dates are for donating supplies only. Shopping Event dates are outlined below when items can be picked up.
Pick up free supplies on Friday, August 21 (4 to 8 p.m.) and Saturday, August 22 (10 a.m. to 2 p.m.) at the East Side Recycling Center’s Environmental Education Center, 2401 Scott Blvd. SE, Iowa City.
