Upcycle Parts Shop Mission: to provoke creativity & promote community through reuse, resourcefulness & relationships

Opened since July 2014, Upcycle Parts Shop is a 501(c)3 Non-Profit located in Cleveland’s St. Clair/Superior neighborhood.

“Provoke creativity and promote community through reuse, resourcefulness, and relationships” is the core of our mission. We do this by keeping creative materials out of the waste stream and get them back into the hands of our city’s people for another chance at fulfilling their potential. We accept these donations from local manufacturers, businesses, and people like you looking to relieve themselves of material weight. Then we offer them for sale at low costs or use them in our programming endeavors. Essentially, we’re an art supply store full of interesting materials finished with their first lives that are waiting for you to begin their second, or third, or fourth! We also offer creative workshops and community crafting stations throughout Northeast Ohio. Our goal is to function as a social enterprise, meaning we’re committed to doing good for our neighborhood, for our people, and for the world.

ART FOR WELLNESS

Join artist and Art Therapy Studio Art Therapy Studio intern Sydney Kreuzmann this Sunday, October 25th from 1:00-3:00pm in our Craft Café for a FREE therapeutic art session that encourages you to create in community and calm.

This week we will reflect on the moving pieces of our lives, how they interact, and what it takes to find balance when one part shifts with our “Finding Balance Wire Mobiles.”

These events are FREE to attend, but a reservation is required. Secure your spot at the Upcoming Events tab of our website or use our Link Tree!

Art for Wellness is a free community-based therapeutic art program for participants of all ages that explores creativity as a tool for well-being, self-expression, and connection. Using repurposed and reclaimed materials, participants will engage in guided art experiences that promote mindfulness, emotional wellness, and community building while discovering new possibilities in everyday objects. These events encourage shared creative experiences and opportunities to practice wellness skills together.

Art Therapy Studio connects people with the healing power of art therapy. Their goal is to empower those they serve to reach their full potential while minimizing financial barriers to mental health services. Upcycle Parts Shop is proud to collaborate with them to introduce our community to the services they offer.

SATURDAYS ON ST. CLAIR!

Upcycle Parts Shop is proud to offer our FREE Saturdays on St. Clair Workshop Series, designed for our community to explore creative reuse, learn upcycling techniques, and see everyday materials in a new way.

Our next workshop is this Saturday, October 17th, 2026 from 1:00-3:00 PM in the Craft Café. This workshop is for All Ages!

ABOUT THE WORKSHOP:
In “Articulated Paper Dolls” with David Van Horn, participants will make a fun or spooky paper doll with joints that can be moved.

ABOUT THE INSTRUCTOR:
Mx. David van Horn [He/Him] is an art educator and community organizer who has been doing community work for more than 15 years in St. Clair Superior. He has taught in libraries, parks, and at development corporations with many hats but focusing on the pillars of sustainable arts education with a roving listener approach to reach out to other pillars such as food, education and pedestrian safety.

His David V. Art educator program was thought up as a way to do outreach to schools that had their arts programming cut or to offer to afterschool and senior centers as well as libraries as a way of engaging in what’s called third place-something that is neither home nor work-a place where people can learn a new skill or interact with others socially. It has expanded to be something that’s done both in and outside the classroom. This program is about teaching others about what can be done with materials that would usually be thrown away by way of arts and culture. This helps build communities and lessen barriers between culture and language.

The Art cart is fee for service program. Check out David V. Art educator to see how art cart can fit in to your next event.
