Spare Arts Volunteer Hours

Help us sort donated art supplies and pack craft kits for our Spare Arts Supply stations. We get heaps of supplies donated every month, and we want to make sure they get into the hands of artists. During this shift, you'll be doing one of the following: Sorting loose or bagged items into categories (ie. Fiber Arts, Paint, Office Supplies) Freshening up supplies if needed—things like winding yarn into balls, removing lint from fabric, or tidying up a container of colored beads. Packing items into pre-planned kits based on a list provided by one of our Spare Arts Leads Labelling supplies and kits Any questions? Send us an email at [email protected].
