We are open to the public and we love new visitors and donators!

She’s almost here…
REFAIR! Now, what the f*ck is ReFair?

We are holding a craft-fair-esq event this Saturday the 5th from 10-2 in the Kennedy dining hall we have loving named ReFair. It is a place for you to support fellow sustainable artists who use materials supplied from our store. Items will be for sale, and artists will be using Venmo and other digital cash transfers. Items up for grabs include handmade shirts, skateboards, stickers, jewelry, prints, sculptures, hats, tote bags, paintings, dresses, sketchbooks, and more! Supplies will be limited, so come while you can.

While this event is not specifically a fundraiser, i will also be collecting donations to be distributed back to the community. I have chosen Solid Ground Cafes give back program to be the recipient, which gives warm sandwiches, drinks and snacks off their menu away to vulnerable members of our community for free. Donations will be taken in cash, and i will include a digital receipt for you all to track the funds with.

Email or dm us with questions! We hope to see you there :)

With love,
ReStore
