Program Description

Event Details

Is your yarn stash taking over? Did you dive into embroidery, only to realize it wasn’t your thing? Do you jump into new hobbies every month, leaving the old ones behind? Or maybe you’re eager to try something new but don’t want to splurge on supplies? Let’s swap and share!

Bring your donations of new or gently used craft supplies to our Community Craft Supply Swap.
