Upcycle Pop is an eco-art market for art, upcycled, repurposed, and eco-friendly items happening every Saturday in The Old Sacramento Waterfront, California

This Eco-Art Market known as Upcycle Pop is an outdoor art market for eco-friendly art and creatively upcycled items located in the historic district of The Old Sacramento Waterfront. The market happens every Saturday at the Atrium, 1020 Front Street, Sacramento’s Creative Innovation Center for Sustainability.

Masked up and socially distanced we have kid-friendly stuff to do – Play chess, make chalk art, drop in for a hip hop class and so much more!

This is a fun place to meet Sacramento local makers and watch these eco artists create works of art from discarded items.

If you’re not up on the green lingo and are asking what is upcycling? The best way to think of upcycling is that it’s like a sexier, even greener version of recycling. Upcycling adds value by transforming or reinventing an otherwise-disposable item into something of higher quality. It’s the ultimate in reuse–and we believe a whole new industry sector is shaping up around it. Old Jeans are turned into reusable shopping bags, pallets turned into urban chic furniture, and plastic bottles into Geodesic Sphere Chandeliers.

During non-covid times we have live performances, drinks for a good cause, and interactive art installations that educate and inspire sustainable living. We love to remake, play, eat and get creative. When safe, we will be returning our interactive art exhibit experiences.

Paint & Booch: paint and sip on Kombucha with us!

We are beginning to offer a fun and relaxing thing to do - paint with us. At the Atrium we don’t serve food we serve Art. Spend a chill moment painting in the shade outdoors with music. Take your time and spend an hour healing yourself from the hustle and bustle and paint a canvas, a mask, or a magnet that you can cherish. A romantic fun thing to do at the Old Sacramento Waterfront. A great thing for kids to do and makes an entertaining gift for the grandparents.
