Found SJ FOUND*SJ is a permanent rummage and reuse hub created by Preservation Action Council of San José (PAC*SJ). More than a shop, FOUND*SJ is a gathering place.

FOUND*SJ is PAC*SJ’s rummage & reuse hub in downtown San José, turning donated goods into treasures that support historic preservation, sustainability, and community events. After years of one-day rummage sales and pop-ups, we’re building a dedicated space to keep useful materials out of landfills, celebrate local history, and support PAC*SJ’s preservation work. Located at Creekside at 57 Barack Obama Boulevard, FOUND*SJ is where you’ll find an ever-changing mix of secondhand furnishings, household materials, décor, books, and curiosities. We’ll host talks, art shows, workshops, and community events that highlight San José’s past while inspiring more sustainable futures. Every purchase directly supports PAC*SJ’s mission to preserve and reuse the historic places that tell our city’s story. Donate, volunteer, or just come treasure-hunting—FOUND*SJ is where good stuff gets a second life and a good cause gets stronger.

NEW WORKSHOP 10/4/2026 🎨

Watercolor Workshop:
Still Life Sketching with Suhita Shirodkar
Sunday, October 4th 10am-1pm
Found SJ Rummage & Reuse Hub
57 Barack Obama Blvd, San Jose CA 95110

$55 PAC*SJ Members
$65 General Public
Materials Included - All Skill Levels Welcome
Come join artist Suhita Shirodkar in a watercolor workshop designed for all levels and inspired by all the gorgeous treasures at Found SJ.

In this workshop you will paint a small still life in watercolor while learning the basics of drawing from observation. The workshop focuses on using a technique called grisaille, which helps you understand form and create dimension. Bring your watercolor supplies if you have them, but if you don’t, there will be palettes and brushes you can borrow and pigments for your use.


ABOUT THE ARTIST:
Suhita Shirodkar is a mixed media artist and educator with a practice strongly rooted in drawing. Her work records the world around her, both the ordinary and the unfamiliar, through fresh eyes. You can see more of her work on instagram at Suhita
