Donation Day at The Craft Apothecary and Owatonna Makerspace!

At The Craft Apothecary and Owatonna Makerspace, donated art and craft supplies help us keep creativity accessible for everyone. Whether it’s fabric, yarn, tools, beads, or half-finished projects that just never quite found their spark — we put them to good use.

We are currently looking for:

Craft Apothecary

• Art, craft, and hobby supplies (fabric, craft paint, art brushes, yarn, paper, scrapbooking materials, beads, etc.)

• Crafting tools and equipment

• Storage bins and containers for organizing materials

• Art and craft books and patterns for sewing, crochet, knitting, etc.

• 3 tier rolling craft carts (such as the crafting once found at IKEA/Michael's/etc.)

Owatonna Makerspace

• Mud and tape to finish the drywall joints in the Makerspace

• Wood—2x4's and plywood

• Building tools, small equipment in good working condition, screws, nails, etc.

• Stained Glass Materials and Tools

For a list of what we will not accept and a more comprehensive list of items we will accept please visit our Donations Page. Let’s keep good materials out of landfills, put them back into the hands of makers, and keep creativity flowing in Owatonna.
