Utica Creative Reuse

Utica Creative Reuse is an arts and culture organization in Utica built around reusing materials for creative projects. Creative reuse centers gather donated supplies, such as fabric, paper and craft materials, and put them in the hands of artists, teachers and makers who can use them.

The idea keeps useful materials out of the trash while making art supplies easier to come by for crafters, classrooms and community groups. In a city like Utica, it adds a green-minded option for creative people who like to make something from what already exists.
