Ok, How Does This Work? How Do I Become a Member?

OUR MEMBER ARTISTS transform post-consumer stuff into a
variety of decorative and functional items that they sell. They each
have an individual Wish-List, which we compile into the one you see
here. We sort donations into their bins at our “club house” on
Cherokee St.
YOU get a coupon for discounts on the eco-friendly, locally made
goods created by our artists when you donate things on our Wish-
List to a drop-off location near you! (They are listed on the “Donate”
page of UpXChange.com)
PLEASE NOTE: Upcycle Exchange and it's participating locations
