Reuse Arts and Crafts, located at 1824 San Pablo in Berkeley, opens its doors in 2020! My name is Frida Godoy, and I am the owner and founder of Reuse Arts & Crafts. I am originally from Mexico City, and ever since I was a young girl, I have worked on designing arts and crafts using recyclable materials. From a young age, I was aware of the need to work with materials that could be recycled, to help us maintain a healthier environment. When the time came to migrate to the United States, I realized even more, how important it was to take advantage of the recycling systems and continue to work on making arts and functional crafts. I strongly believe that small actions can have great impacts on our society, and this is why I welcome everyone to do something to help our ecosystem, by donating recyclable materials and learning how to make arts and functional crafts out of them. Classes will be available soon! I welcome you to visit our store and support our work to help us contribute to our planet and a better future for the new generations.
