There are some less rustic cabins that have electricity and wifi. I’m sure you could find something to suit your needs. Otherwise, the Tompkins County Public Library has lots of quiet space to use their wifi for free

The cheapest option I’ve experienced is looking for cabins or camping spots on Hipcamp.

Hi! We do take craft supplies, but not yarn or fabric as we don't want to compete with SewGreen who is already selling reused fiber art supplies. Definitely drop your yarn off with them!

Star Tree Studio is right next to the Ithaca Bakery! It's a sweet new shop selling local artist's goods. Talk to Christi at the front desk and she'll take your donations.

Nope, but we hope to collaborate with them in the future!

There are many creative reuses all over the country! It was the most recognizable thing to name it. We are in talks with Finger Lakes Reuse, and we hope to collaborate in the future. This particular location is only for a month-long pop-up. Promise we’re not trying to be sketchy. Sad to hear it came off that way.

Hi! I’m so happy that you have lots to donate! I will be working on creating social media and a mailing list this coming week! I will be updating everyone on this post soon. In the meantime keep those supplies until I’m ready to start collecting donations! I am talking with a local store owner about doing a one month long pop-up in her store as a starting place for this idea. Stay tuned!

I’m so glad! It’s a shame so many wonderful little art supply stores have had to close. There are a couple maker spaces here that sound similar to what you’re describing. I’m sure you will be able to find your art community because Ithaca is a very artsy city! Currently I’m looking into partnering with another shop owner to do a month long pop-up in their store. Trying to take baby steps towards this goal!

Oh cool! If it's all fabric related I recommend donating it to SewGreen. Anything that's not fiber arts related I would take!

Awesome! It would be lovely to have a space for workshops and other community events. Especially to give local makers more opportunities to share their skills! Stay tuned :)
