We have a mission: to use art to encourage our community to creatively look at trash. Reuse is at the heart of all we do.

We partner artists with individuals and businesses who have items that they no longer want, but don’t want to throw away and hope will be reincarnated in some artistic fashion.At our store, ReClaim It! (reclaimitpdx.org) we rescue materials from the transfer station and sell them to the public for reuse. We hope to inspire reuse, repair and creative reuse or re-imagination of rescued items.
