Brooklyn Creative Reuse sells secondhand art supplies by the pound, with volunteer shifts earning free materials

Brooklyn Creative Reuse, a nonprofit thrift store in Industry City, sells discarded art materials by weight (yarn $8/lb, fabric $7/lb, other items $3/lb) and offers community volunteers a free bag of supplies for three-hour shifts, making the local arts scene more sustainable and affordable by diverting usable materials from landfills.
