Bring an item, take an item! Have crafting supplies you’re no longer using? Give them a new home and find a little inspiration at our Craft Swap on November 2!

Drop off your unused crafting supplies at the Albright Memorial Library starting October 19 through the end of the swap. In return, you’ll receive a Swap Ticket to choose from a selection of crafting items at the event.

It’s a fun way to share with fellow crafters and discover something for your next project. We can’t wait to see what you’ll create!
