The Creative Reuse Marketplace in Springfield is not only the perfect place to find your creative supplies, but also a way to support the community.
The shop is a small nonprofit that not only provides a way of reusing products and materials but also gives a space for education and job training for low income, unemployed, and homeless women.
According to our news partners at WAND-TV, the store carries all of the stuff you might need for any creative projects including pencils, paint, and paper. They also have more unique items, like puzzle pieces and bottle caps.
Everything you can find in store is donated by the community so trash can get a second life.
The goal is to raise money for operating costs and the workforce program.
Monday December 12th is the last day of the Creative Reuse Marketplace online holiday auction.
