Weekday Sketchers At the Big ReUse



BIG REUSE - 32 Photos & 33 Reviews - 1 12th St, Brooklyn, NY - Yelp

  • It's a minimalist's nightmare or a hoarder's dream. 
  •  It is the biggest garage sale in the city. 
  •  It is a step forward in the fight keep material out of landfills

What is it?  

It is the Big ReUse in Gowanus 


In keeping with this year's overarching theme of Climate Change Mitigation, we will travel to Gowanus to sketch the warehouse of The Big ReUse.  This over the top thrift shop is only one phase of the organization's programing to maintain a circular economy that gives back to the environment in multiple ways. To learn more about this organization and the Gowanus store, click here; https://bigreuse.org

Weather permitting, we can also sketch along the Gowanus Canal and the surrounding industrial neighborhood.
