Creative ReSources

Creative Re-Sources is an awesome reuse “store” that creatively supports the arts, education, and the environment by providing reusable materials to educators and not-for-profit groups within the community. All of the items available atCreative Re-Sources have been donated by area businesses, manufacturers, organizations, and individuals in an effort to keep the materials out of landfills. The Johnson County Solid Waste District operates Creative Re-Sources within the District office.

To shop at Creative Re-Sources, individuals from schools, churches, scout troops, homeschool families and not-for-profit groups pay $5.00 per shopping visit (one shopping visit per month) to shop. The fees go toward offsetting the cost of shipping materials and staff time to stock inventory.
