🅹🆄🅽🅺 𝙹𝚘𝚞𝚛𝚗𝚊𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚐 𝙲𝚕𝚞𝚋 and 𝐹𝐼𝐵𝐸𝑅 𝐴𝑅𝑇𝑆 𝑁𝐼𝐺𝐻𝑇𝑆 ARE BACK, BABY! While we don't have the studio of our dreams up on the mezzanine quite yet - we can still bring back club nights!

As we open up 2/3 club nights again I'm trimming an hour off the thrift store on week days. I'm hoping this will be the last change to our hours as I know this annoying to patrons. Bear with me as I try to re-arrange things to best serve everyone.

*Refashioning Club (Sewing 101, mending, bust-making, quilting workshops, etc) won't start until we have a professional space to use. 🤞 Fingers crossed that will be early Summer or late May.

HELP ME SPREAD THE WORD!!!

We need empty packaging tape rolls/scotch tape rolls and scrabble tile holders for upcoming Summer workshops. We need A LOT of raw wool from local sheep farmers for our community wool washing, natural dye, and felting workshops!

And your narrator (Jacquelyn) has mastered her fear of miter saws and is now soldering mixed media stained glass jewelry and art - out of glass, porcelain doll faces, pool balls, and dominos! I need a lot more pool balls though - which are hard to find. These pieces will be available for sale in the shop this Summer...along with purses....made out of phone cords....I do always promise it's only getting weirder around here, didn't I!?

*DM the page to schedule a raw wool pickup or drop off at our shop across from O'So Brewing Co. inside Artist & Fare (12-& Wednesdays thru Sundays).

Collect & Gather is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit. Our thrift/art/creative reuse store funds our free community art studio.
