Before You Dump It Give Us a Thought

Do you live in the Manawatu?  Hunting for a ready source of low cost and free art and craft materials?  Or seeking a home for pre-loved art supplies that you can't bear to throw out?  Well look no further than the Arts Recycling Centre (ARC).

Resources

ARC is a treasure trove of resources including: fabric, card, paper, cane, cork, patchwork bundles, leather, shells, flowers, zips, plastic containers, tubes, collage packs, cotton, lace, felt, thread, canvas, bubble wrap, foam, paint, lino, ribbons, greeting cards, computer paper, trims, feathers and much much more ...

Donations

ARC receives donations from all the sectors of the community including local business.  If you have arts and crafts supplies you would like to donate to ARC call us today!  For larger donations we can do pickups.
