In this episode of Ecophonia, I sit down with Toban Nichols, the Director of Education and Development at REMAINDERS Creative Reuse, a unique nonprofit in Pasadena, California. 

Toban shares insights into how REMAINDERS functions as an arts and crafts thrift store that also serves as an educational hub and a community center. We delve into their sustainable practices, community-building efforts, and partnerships with other nonprofits. 

Discover how REMAINDERS turned a small garage operation into a thriving organization that receives and redistributes tons of creative materials, helping to keep items out of the landfill and fostering creativity across diverse groups. 

Tune in to hear about their innovative classes, relief efforts during crises like the Eaton fire, and future plans for expanding into performance and wellness spaces.
