SHARE YOUR EXTRA MATERIALS

A big part of what we like to do here at The MAC is to get unwanted craft materials to the community.

We do this in several ways!
Exterior of a small building with black and white mural art, a sign for 'Thrifter' indicating operating hours, and part of a colorful street mural with abstract shapes and patterns.

THE Thrifter

  • This is an unladyied thrift store that has only art/craft materials. This is pay as you can- take what you need system. There is a donation box in the room and you are welcome to donate straight to the box!

The entrance of a craft store named 'the mac' with a neon 'OPEN' sign, a small display cabinet with glass doors, and signs indicating it offers arts and crafts classes.

The Free Little Craft Cabinet

  • We have a plethora of craft and art materials that we want to share! Mr. Robert Lovsey Jr built us a super cool craft cabinet to sit outside our front door. This cabinet is open for anyone to take whatever they’d like in the cabinet. This is a large cabinet out front our shop- materials are freely shared in this space whenever we can get a volunteer to fill it! Materials in this cabinet are free for the taking! Friends can also put craft/art materials in the cabinet when we are not at the shop to receive donations!

Shelf displaying craft kits, including a pipe cleaner sculpture kit, fabric bundles, and plain cardboard boxes for art projects at a school of arts and crafts.

Craft Kits

  • Craft kits are take and make projects that we’ve created from other donated materials. We make all kinds of craft kits! Some are for sale and some are made to be donated to the community~ We donate them to Ms. Laura for her Blessing Boxes (which goes WAY out into the community and surrounding communities) We will give them away on the bus.
