Yes please
&
No thank you
list

Please review our “yes please and no thank you” list below! You can bring donations any time you visit the studio. If you are bringing a large donation please contact us to set up an appointment.

If you have a loved one who has passed or are just looking to clear out your art drawer that no longer serves you, we are here to help! Whenever you bring a donation of supplies to the studio you are welcome to take items in exchange for what you brought or still make a payment to support our mission.

We love seeing how the supplies from our donors change the lives of the artists buying them. It’s such an incredible cycle!

If you don’t see an item you have on either list please contact us to confirm if we will take it or not.

Please organize your donations as much as possible before donating as it helps get the items onto the RV or on the studio floor faster for your shopping ease!
