Reclaimed Artists Don’t Toss It. They “Reimagine” It

Jan. 24, 2013 - PRLog -- Sergeantsville, New Jersey – Don’t Toss It LLC today announced the official launch of its website, DontTossIt.com. DontTossIt.com is an online store dedicated to the creative and imaginative art of “repurposing.”  
The number of artists who are embracing the concept of creating art from salvaged materials is growing. These artists now have a dedicated site to showcase this work and inspire others to discover new and ingenious uses for disposed items.

A juried and invitational artist selection process ensures that only the best in upscale, US-made repurposed art, home décor, fashion and more is represented. The site also provides valuable information and message forums for environmentally conscious artists and consumers.

According to the company’s partners, Pam Chamberlain and Nora Mathews, “DontTossIt.com provides environmentally conscious consumers the opportunity to purchase ‘reimagined’ art and fine crafts. Our hope is that these works will inspire discussions about other resourceful ways we can make a difference on our planet.”

To further support and encourage this cause, DontTossIt.com is donating 5% of their profits to establish a mini-grant program.  Chamberlain said, “This program is designed to encourage both new and established artists to break from tradition and create works from salvaged items.  As funding grows we will partner with our sponsors to establish a non-profit organization dedicated to the art of retrieving and reimagining.”
