What is gathering dust in a studio can start again here
Paint, brushes, easels, stools: we are equipping the place largely with what others no longer use.
A place of creation needs materials. A great deal of them. Rather than buying new, we would rather give a second life to what already exists, and which is often gathering dust in a studio, a cellar or a classroom.
What we are looking for
- Acrylic and gouache paint, brushes of all sizes, pencils, charcoal, pastels
- Canvases, frames, large-format drawing paper, wood or cardboard panels
- Easels, stools, chairs, studio lamps
- Palettes, spatulas, jars, clips, cloths
The up-to-date list is on the “Support” page: we remove what we receive, so that we only ask for what is genuinely missing.
How to go about it
Write to info@livingmuseumneuchatel.ch describing what you have. We will get back to you to arrange a drop-off. Materials do not need to be new, simply usable and clean.
