One Man’s Trash…

How to Donate to Pegasus Creative Reuse

1. Gather Your Supplies
Round up new and gently used art and craft supplies—think fabric, paper, yarn, paints, beads, brushes, tools, frames, and other creative materials from past projects.

2. Check the No-Go List
We cannot accept hazardous materials, broken items, moldy or water-damaged supplies, food, or furniture (unless art/craft related or pre-approved by us). If you wouldn’t use it, we probably can’t either.

3. Pack It Up
Neatly pack items in boxes or bags that you can leave behind. Organizing by categories helps us process items faster to get them on the shelves and on their way to new creative homes!

4. Drop It Off
Make sure to schedule a time to drop off your donation.
