A junk shop for artists, Arts Junktion is a great place to spend a couple hours on the weekend and see what you can find. You do have to go regularly though to get the best crack at the best stuff though, and because all of their offerings are donations it all depends on what people donate. However, the staff are friendly and very helpful. If you're a regular they will keep an eye out for things you mention needing/wanting for you (which is always appreciated). They also teach workshops in all sorts of creative techniques from stencilling to collage, different painting techniques and beyond. If you're patient and willing to spend the time, Arts Junktion is a fantastic place to pick up art supplies and get ideas for projects. You never know what you're going to find!

Stopped by to check out one of their free craft nights - what a pleasant experience! Friendly staff, a variety of people - every single age, background, etc - and a new craft to learn!
I ended up sitting at a table with 3 other people, and we were all making different leather crafts. Everyone was friendly, passing supplies between the (many) tables. Even with a small hiccup (temporary power outage) everyone was still in good spirits!
It's right across the street from Red River College. While the entry door is a bit hidden, they have signs on the fence to encourage you towards the entry door. :)

A hidden gem, worth checking out!

Such a great place for the community. Leftover craft materials from wood to ceramics, and fabric to Christmas decorations! This place brings out the creativity in you. Great for non-profits and parents with young kids

This is such a lovely place! I just moved into the area and remembered the Art shop that used to be here- I would get supplies there sometimes. When I stopped in I was so pleasantly surprised to see ArtsJunktion in its place! What a fantastic concept to help the community and make use of things that would likely end up in the trash. Super sweet volunteer staff, and I ve made great use of their collection of National Geographics.

The people that volunteer here are hard at work keeping Thai place as organized as a junk drop off can be, I love the magazine selection as I'm obsessed with collage and I like that people are kind and progressive. Thank you for funding this space

It's a wonderful concept. Creative reuse! Donate art supplies you don't need and pay what you can for the supplies you take. It's like treasure hunting and finding that one thing that can spark you imagination. Oh and don't forget about the classes they offer! Wonderful and friendly volunteers.
