Got some gently used or new supplies that just don't get your creative juices flowing anymore? Come swap them for something else. Or just come and find that new item that will inspire you to get creating again.

How it works:

• Gather up those supplies that don’t bring you joy. Make sure everything is clean, in good condition, and free of pet hair. You can also include those U.F.O.s (Un-Finished Objects) that may inspire someone else. Or offer up some of your old creations to make room for new ones.

• If you’ve got a lot to give to the swap, bring your items to the Art Equals studio during regular business hours the week before the event or make an appointment to drop them off. We will sort them and have everything ready to go the day of the event. If you just have a few items, you can come at 11:30 AM on the day of the event and sort your own items.

• Bring a bag or box and show up on September 29th and be ready to browse all the creative goodies. Items will be sorted into general categories such as paper, fabric, color, tools, etc. to make it easier to find what your looking for. Any remaining items at the end of the day will be donated or recycled.

• Plan to stick around and have a snack, show off your new finds, and sit and create!

This event seeks to spread creative resources in our community, ensuring everyone can create! We also get to give the earth a hug by keeping unwanted items out of the landfills, so come join the fun.
