Are you ready to try a new craft but already have a house overflowing with art supplies?

Come to our Community Craft Swap!

Bring new or gently used craft supplies to swap with other crafters.

What this is:

The opportunity to trade supplies you already have for supplies needed for a craft you want to try at no cost.A chance to swap the colors of yarn or types of fabric you have for different types that other crafters might have.A chance to meet and socialize with other crafters in your community.

What this is NOT:

A for-profit craft swap nor an opportunity to sell crafted projects. This event is free to attend and no money should be exchanged.An opportunity to get rid of mostly used, damaged, or broken supplies. Supplies should be in good condition, in clean containers, and neatly packaged for transport. 

Here are just a few examples of acceptable Craft Swap supplies:

Skeins of yarnComplete sets of art tools (i.e. color pencils, markers, paintbrushes)Yards of fabric or, at minimum, fat quartersUnused spools of sewing threadWhole sheets of craft/scrapbooking paperBags or boxes of beads

If space allows, each crafter who brings supplies to swap will have a 24" x 30" station to set their supplies for the swap. Please do not bring more, or larger, items than that space can accommodate.

Due to library storage limitations, any un-swapped craft supplies will be returned to the crafter who brought them at the end of the event. 

This event is for Ages 13+
