The Free Art Supply Pantry is a community space focused on recycling and redistributing gently used art supplies in the spirit of mutual aid. The pantry is a volunteer operated program, within the Third Space Art Collective 501(c)(3) nonprofit, located by the east end of the UC Davis Arboretum. We are open regularly to anyone who wants to access gently used and new art supplies at no cost.

Our goals are to: 

1. Take financial pressure off of artists, teachers, students and other community members.
2. Redirect creative materials that are on their way to the trash, by promoting sustainability, and the use of recycled materials throughout the creative process. 
3. Uphold Third Space Art Collective’s DIY philosophy: Empowering people by providing access to tools, materials, and knowledge necessary to become active participants in their community.

At The FASP you may find materials in these major categories: 

*Samples, Trinkets, Shells, Shapes, Funnels, Trophies, Marbles, Maps, etc.
