If you're crafty, get ready to hunt for crafting treasures! ARC volunteers have painstakingly organized the store, so crafting materials are easy to find. However, since it is a craft supply thrift store, the inventory changes constantly. Some days are better than others, but it's always worth the trip!

An exciting wellspring of community! This place has an abundance of craft materials of every kind, classes, and volunteer opportunities that bring together generations of artists and amateurs applying their creativity to recycled materials. I loved the display of artworks scattered around the store, named and credited by a map near the front door. Don't miss the markets hosted by this place, which are an excellent opportunity to see works made by its artists. This place has a large free parking lot.

I love this place so much! I spend hours every time I go. There are so many supplies for arts and crafts. If you love thrifting and crafting you will love this place. Also, the prices are unbeatable. Some of the stuff that I got: fabric, threads, zippers, markers, a stapler.

This is the BEST creative reuse center I’ve ever been too. Super organized, great staff, and absolutely lovely experience. The signage and labeling is so helpful to find your favorite crafting needs.

I enjoyed this store, it's a hidden gem! I went for the back to school sale. There was a make and take craft that my daughter loved. It has a great community focused environment. I will definitely go back for gently used items and donate some items. Check it out for yourself.
