Materials Drop-Off/Pick-Up Information
Materials Committee
Materials: (Laurie Cessford)
The Materials Committee involves : the collection of materials from businesses, organizations, and individuals and their transportation to our depot. During open hours volunteers will readily join you at our loading dock to help you unload your donations. Because we are an organization of volunteers we ask that you transport your material donations directly to the depot. Additional times can be negotiated as well as occasional pick-up arrangements for any donations you may have – please contact us. materials@artsjunktion.mb.ca
Site/Depot Management: (Michelle Bradley Hakimelahi)
Michelle is our 'people person'. She schedules volunteer shifts including open depot hours and special events. Our beautiful depot has the potential for many different uses such as art workshops, meetings, special events. The ArtsJunktion depot space is available for a small donation by booking your desired date through Michelle. Please contact us for availability. materials@artsjunktion.mb.ca

Art From Junk
These pieces were created by local artist, Laurie Green, using many raw materials from ArtsJunktion. Laurie says, “I can't imagine this resource not existing!! It's terrific! Thanks for all the the hard work from the coordinators and volunteers." |
