Professional Development

We believe that learning is a lifelong endeavor. Engage your team or staff through different aspects of our mission, whether it be Homeless Outreach, Environmental Awareness, or Creative Problem Solving, we are sure to introduce something new to the workplace.

Events and Festivals

ScrapsKC will come to your event! We offer craft tables and activity stations that are perfect for festivities, parties, and gatherings. Creative play knows no age, so provide something fun for the kids and adults alike.

Our activity-based self-serve tables start at $150 per hour, and require a minimum reservation of two hours, with an additional 30 minutes for both set up and take down.

Email william@scrapskc.org for more information.

A Place to Do and Make

Choose the materials and create in our space. We have the tools and the place to design and construct your creation.

Make and take

Create independently with our materials and supplies, then take your one-of-a-kind creation home! Perfect fun for any age! The Make-and-Take space is available for drop-ins during store hours except when a scheduled event is taking place. Call ahead to confirm availability. Under 12 requires adult accompaniment.
