“Reuse Alliance fully supports the inclusion of this creative reuse session within the SXSWedu conference. Reuse is a central tenet of sustainability & needs to be fully incorporated into our education system.” -MaryEllen Etienne
“Spare Parts is already making a difference. Spreading their ideas is what SXSWedu is all about. Check on their pages & read the Teachers’ comments; there are some wonderful things happening.” -R. Garza
“The time has come to rethink ways in which we can provide valuable creative resources for our students & teachers. Adding an eco-friendly mindset to the equation not only opens up a whole new world of creativity, but helps to further educate our students on the importance of living in a sustainable world. There is no better way to educate our students on the importance of reusing & repurposing everyday materials than through the creative world of the arts.” -David Frank
“With shrinking budgets for school arts programs, we’ve got to get creative in order to teach kids how to be creative. Creative reuse projects aren’t just a nifty program to introduce in our schools. I believe they’re a necessity if we want arts education to thrive.” -Clifton Walker
“Spare Parts is one of the most honest & straightforward programs out there directly helping our teachers & children tap into their creativity. We need more people to get involved in programs such as this one!!” - Mari Verduzco Boyd
