At InspirEDU we inspire the future STEAM leaders. Through technology, we've had the ability to produce, innovate, and create art. So we are ramping it up a bit this year with our first ever Upcycle Tech contest. We want you to join us in using tech in a unique way by upcycling parts to make art!

Check out This Example:

Kendall, a metro Atlanta high school student utilized computer parts she found at the Inspiredu warehouse to create this replica of the Atlanta Skyline

We Can Help you with the Parts But You have to bring the Art!

We welcome all students in the state of Georgia to participate in our upcycle challenge. You can utilize parts from any technology device. Please handle parts with care.

No Parts No Worries

We can provide you the chance to come to our warehouse and pick up computer parts if necessary. Our warehouse is located in Atlanta and pickup is by appointment only. Unfortunately, we are unable to mail parts boxes. They must be picked up from our warehouse
