Re-purposing initiatives and upcycling programs have been taking off around the globe in multiple industries, the arts, music, and events- bringing materials from the "waste stream" back into the "mainstream."

"As an artist that works for VDA Productions, I saw various surplus materials that I knew could serve another purpose and avoid the landfill," said Liz Breda, Assistant Paint Shop Supervisor and VDA Re-Purposing Initiative Program Administrator. "This is our way to share with the Maker community as a consistent and reliable source of materials- free materials- that foster more creative experimentation and support innovation. At the heart of it, creative thinking and collaboration is what we are all about at VDA!"

"The program builds relationships within the community and gives back in a way that is so simple, and yet seldom done," said Julia Jerome, Freelance Artist at VDA and Re-Purposing Program Community Liaison. "Today, artists and Makers rely on community interaction and knowledge sharing, with websites and social media tools serving as knowledge repositories for information sharing and the exchange of ideas. It's incredible to be part of the process and part of an agency that supports this participatory approach and leads by example. The program grows every day!"
