Brooklyn Creative Reuse, launched by Stephanie O'Brien, aims to keep art materials out of landfills by reselling them at affordable prices. The nonprofit opened a physical location in Sunset Park's Industry City after a year of pop-ups and fundraising. It accepts donations of various art-related materials and offers classes in diverse subjects, taught by creative artists. O'Brien encourages community engagement through workshops and hopes to inspire people to choose reused supplies over new ones.
