But whyyyyyyyyyyy?!?!?!?

Donations of arts and craft supplies is the main way we serve our mission of keeping things useful longer. Since opening in 2024 you all have contributed 65,000lbs of usable materials to creative reuse at Magpie…but receiving donations is only 1 step in keeping them useful.

We are taking September to process all the donations that we have stocked piled. Sorting, organizing, and filling shelves will be the main priority - so we have room to accept more donations in the future!

FAQ
1. Does that mean there won’t be any new stuff on the shelves in September?

🛒 There will definitely be lots of new stuff out! We will be stocking from a big pile of unprocessed donations. Still a great time to shop at Magpie.

2. Yikes! Sounds like a lot of work! How can I help?

💪 We have a donation processing night coming up on Aug 27, sign up to help out. Look for more donation processing nights coming up, or attend a Volunteer Orientation to get started as a regular volunteer.
Donate Time page of magpiecreativereuse.org

3. When you start taking donations again, how do I know what you take?

🎨 We accept most arts & craft supplies, textiles & sewing supplies, floral, party, office & school. For a detailed list, look on the Donate Stuff page of magpiecreativereuse.org.

Thank you to Alison Wood and Nadia Boone for presenting today at the Magpie Artist Talk: Starting with Waste.

Alison talked about the second life of glass and explained how she turns waste glass bottles into patterned drinking glasses using blow molds. 🅰🅻🅸🆂🅾🅽 🆆🅾🅾🅳

Nadia shared her processes of adding natural binders to shredded fibers, making a new material from discarded fabric. BIOSPOKE

We hope to do more of these in the future and hear from other Kansas City makers who have innovative, sustainable processes.
