TEACHERS & Educators

Picture
Teachers encourage creativity, champion conservation and foster exceptional learning environments where children learn by doing.

​At UpCycle, we offer teachers and educators a special membership program for access to classroom materials and supplies as well as the opportunity to learn and grow in professional development workshops.

Visit UpCycle with your students or group to learn about upcycling and the "choose to reuse" principle. Use creative energy to transform items previously destined for the waste stream into art. Contact us for pricing at [email protected].

Programs at our location:
  • Tinker Time - Students explore UpCycle's reuse collection and create in an open-ended studio environment. 
  • Found Object Portraits - Guided by UpCycle's teachers, students plan and create a portrait of a person, animal or whatever inspires them. 
  • Shopping Day - Each participant may fill a $5 bag with items from our materials center. 
  • Custom Program - Contact us for more information.

​Inquire with us about bringing a group to UpCycle!
