SCRAP is a 501(c)(3) Arts education nonprofit and a creative Reuse center founded in 1976 in San Francisco. SCRAP works at the intersection of the arts, arts education, and the environment. Our mission is to put the materials and methods of art-making in reach for everyone, helping people turn everyday objects into creative projects that fuel the human spirit, support community vibrancy, and reinforce environmental awareness. And we divert over 200 tons of materials heading from landfill each year!

About the Depot
We pride ourselves on providing equal access to creativity. Our depot in the Bayview is a wonderful "Aladdin's Cave" that provides students, teachers, and artists of all walks of life with access to high quality materials at affordable prices. The materials in our depot change every day, but you’ll always find an abundance of classroom and art supplies, a wide variety of artifacts of inspiring textures, colors, and shapes. The Depot is loosely organized by type of material: paper, wood, metal, glass, fabric, leather, images, office supplies, plastic, natural materials, beads & buttons, arts & crafts, toys, and more.
SCRAP serves 900+ students K-12 each year with our afterschool arts enrichment programs. We bring 10 teaching artists into schools for 30 weeks a year.
Check out our fun variety of upcoming in-person workshops with local artists and creatives!
