About this event

This art and craft swap in Brunswick invites locals to exchange unused creative supplies with others in the community. It is a chance to clear out your stash, discover new materials and meet fellow makers in a relaxed setting.

Event details from Many Hands Make

Bring your spare art and craft supplies and swap them for something else.

Got a whole lot of yarn, paint, embroidery thread, fabric, paint, paper or something else that you don’t need anymore? Bring your art and craft supplies, unfinished projects, or just simply yourself to peruse other people’s supplies! Just like a clothes swap, but for art and craft supplies.

Save some money and be part of a crafting community! This is a relaxed, judgment-free space to swap craft, talk about your latest project and connect with other crafty people!

Come anytime between 12pm–4pm, but the earlier the better!

This art and craft swap is delivered in partnership between Many Hands Make, Ruby Allegra and SWAP Creative. There will also be space to work on your creative projects or test craft materials out!

This is a free event, but donations of $10 are encouraged for taking something from the swap. This helps cover our costs for running this event. You can pay this when booking your ticket on Eventbrite, or in person at the event.
