Art Salvage welcomes requests for art material to support nonprofits and community groups that directly benefit our local community and promote reuse and environmentally sustainable practices.
Depending on the need and expected community impact, we can offer your group or organization a voucher to purchase materials in our creative reuse center ($25-$100 value).
ELIGIBILITY:
Application deadline: By 11:59 pm on the last day of each month
Applications are accepted based on expected community impact and need. (Community impact is how your project or organization helps people in Spokane, like teaching an art class to underserved youth)
We review requests monthly and will reply by email to your request by the 15th of the month after your application.
If your request is granted, you must arrange to pick up the voucher from our location.
A representative from your organization or group will be responsible for coming into Art Salvage and selecting the desired materials. Plan to come during regularly scheduled store hours (see website for hours and holiday closures)
Materials available are limited to stock on hand. We recommend contacting Art Salvage about special requests and large quantities 3-6 months prior to your need.
You may pick up the voucher and select materials on the same day.
Vouchers will expire at 4 pm on the date of the event stated on your application. If your program doesn’t have a specific date the voucher will be valid for 3 months.
