Event Details
Spring clean your art supplies and get inspiration for new projects! Bring gently used art supplies to the library and swap supplies and inspiration with others.
How does it work?
- Supplies may be donated the week before the event beginning on May 15th and up to the day of the event. Please bring art supplies to the front desk at the Harmony Library.
- Each person may donate up to two shopping bags worth of supplies.
- Everyone who comes to the swap will be provided with a free reusable grocery sized bag.
- You may fill your bag with new-to-you craft supplies to take home.
While you peruse the goods, don’t forget to engage with fellow crafters, swap stories, and share tips and tricks. Who knows? You might even find a new crafting buddy!
