Program Description

Event Details

Calling all artists, crafters, and aspiring creatives alike - join us for our first ever "Studio Exchange" community art supply swap! Bring your new or gently-used arts and crafts supplies and swap them for something new at the Downtown Library on Saturday, October 18th, from 11am-1pm.  

Here's how you can participate!
- Attending the program with supplies to swap? Drop by between 11am-1pm to swap your supplies with fellow creatives!
- Attending the program without any supplies? No worries - everyone is welcome to drop in and pick out supplies! 
- Can't make it to the program, but still have supplies you'd like to share? We will be taking donations at all of our service locations from Monday, September 29th - Friday, October 17th.

If donating, we do ask you to be mindful of the following:
- Please donate arts and crafts supplies only (please see attached sample list of supplies)
- Donations must be fit for re-use (new or gently-used, not expired)
- Donations must fit in your car
- When in doubt, use the "bestie rule" - ask yourself, "would I give this item to my best friend?"
