Arts & Scraps is a creative reuse and STEAM educational nonprofit. We take materials out of the waste stream for public use and education. We have a store that's open to the public where we resource people with all types of creative materials. Our nonprofit runs on donations so everything you see in our store was donated by a local business or person just like you. We use these materials to teach STEAM but also anyone can come buy these materials.

We serve all of Detroit and Metro Detroit but we are located on the far east side near Morningside, Denby Whitter, and East English Village

History


Founded in 1989

Arts & Scraps was founded by Peg Upmeyer in 1989 and has been supporting the east side of Detroit and more for the past 37 years. With Pegs legacy we have grown into a community hub.
