Frequently Asked Questions | ReStore-It Challenge
Are there any criteria, rules, or guidelines for the projects?
No! The Restore-It Challenge encourages you to be as creative, innovative, or traditional as you’d like with your project. Artists might choose to paint a piece of furniture, while woodworkers may focus on restoring the beauty of the natural wood. Inventors might get creative, using unusual pieces to create something new. Whatever inspires you, we’d love to see how you choose to ReStore-It.
When does the challenge take place?
The challenge begins on January 8th! All completed projects must be returned to the ReStore by April 1st to be included in voting.
When are the winners announced?
Winners from each store (SLO and Paso Robles) will be announced on April 18th!
