REcreate Collective
is an eco-friendly, community-centered space where sustainability meets creativity, bringing together recycling, upcycling, a refillery, repair & DIY workshops led by expert makers who share practical skills and inspire hands-on learning for all ages through workshops and inclusive events. At its core, REcreate Collective functions as both a makerspace and a gathering place, offering memberships that give the public access to space, tools, recycled materials, and collaborative work areas to create, mend, and reimagine. A rotating Pop-Up Gallery features eco-artists and makers working with reclaimed and recycled materials, while a thoughtfully curated thrift & upcycled wearables boutique, extends the life cycle of goods in unique and innovative ways. REcreate Collective also promotes inclusivity and well-being, hosting substance-free teen nights and adult evenings that foster creativity, connection and community.
