September 2023 Used Art Supplies Sale
Thanks to everyone who donated art supplies for our Art Supplies Swap/Sale. The sale was on Saturday, September 9, 2023 from 1 to 4pm. There were many, many great items for artists and crafters to buy to add to their arsenal of familiar art tools. Art instructor Margaret Bucholz who teaches private art lessons at the Addison Park District got great deals on materials for her students. Everything was so inexpensive, so no one felt bad about just getting something to experiment with. All proceeds from the sale went to the Addison Center for the Arts.
After the sale, the high school art teachers and students and the ASD#4 art teachers were offered a chance to take whatever they
wanted. Maria Ramon, the art teacher at Addison Trail High School, commented on Facebook, “Thank you!! My AP art students have been using their new supplies all week!”
ACA’s Julie Mars says, “I was blown away when Carrie Zatarski from Army Trail Elementary School came to pick up most of what was left after the high school students came through. She picked up supplies to share with the entire school district. I was very surprised that we wouldn’t have very much left to donate to SCARCE.”
Upon discussing the successful distribution of the preowned art supplies at the ACA’s September board of directors meeting, it was
decided that this is a beneficial community program that should occur every September. Artists and crafters can feel good about freeing up storage space in their studios, by shedding items they don’t need. They can be proud that those donations will find their way into the hands of artists, students, and teachers who need them.
