VEVOR Brings Creativity, Sustainability, and Community to Times Square

VEVOR successfully staged "The Great Upgrade" in New York's Times Square, an innovative pop-up experience that brought its philosophy, "Upgrade Every Space," to life through hands-on participation. The event revolved around three core initiatives — trade-up of old items, eco-friendly art, and the Home Creator Fund — creating a meaningful platform for creativity, sustainability, and community engagement. Over thousands Home Creators brought their idle tools and household items, exchanging them for exclusive $9.9 new product trade-up vouchers. The activation showcased how thoughtful innovation and sustainable practices can transform everyday spaces while fostering a vibrant, connected community.

As part of the activation, VEVOR collaborated with Brooklyn-based public artist Tom Fruin to create HOUSE, a large-scale sculpture made from reclaimed materials. Attendees joined Fruin in assembling and shaping the installation, experiencing firsthand the excitement of hands-on creativity and collaborative art-making. The interactive project reflected VEVOR's vision of empowering Home Creators to transform everyday spaces through imagination, sustainability, and shared experiences.

"I love transforming ordinary, discarded materials into something that captures light and imagination. Collaborating with VEVOR allowed us to show how creativity and sustainability can meet in everyday spaces," said Tom Fruin.

"Being able to trade items I no longer use and see them transformed into art was incredible. It made me feel part of a truly creative and sustainable community," said Jessica Lee, a Brooklyn resident and DIY enthusiast who participated in the event.

During the activation, VEVOR also announced the launch of the VEVOR Home Creator Fund, a long-term initiative supporting community organizations, sustainability projects, and home improvement programs. The fund extends the impact beyond a single event while reinforcing the company's commitment to fostering lasting, community-driven change.
