Summer Thrift: Clothing & Book Swap!
Summer Thrift: Clothing & Book Swap!
Saturday, August 9, 2025 | Drop-In: 2 – 4 PM
Community Meeting Room, Main Library, 40 Washington St. Quincy, MA
We had such a great time with our Community Clothing + Book Swaps last summer and last winter, we’re bringing it back for round 3!
*** ACCEPTING DONATIONS BETWEEN 8/6 – 8/8 ***
Any leftover items from the event will be donated to various local organizations.
We’re turning the Community Meeting Room into a pop-up thrift + book lounge where you can score new to you clothes, fresh reads, and good vibes—all for free. Stop by the library for a sustainable swap event that’s fun, eco-friendly, and community-focused! This time around, we’re simplifying things—no tickets needed. You’re welcome to browse and take what you need, no exchange required. Bring your clean, gently-used clothes and books, and swap them for new to you items.
DONATION GUIDELINES:
- Follow the “friend rule”: if you wouldn’t give the donation to your friend, don’t bring it to the swap!
- Items might be CLEAN and in GOOD CONDITION
- Please note: To ensure a smooth event, we kindly ask that you limit your donations to 10 items per person.
- No donations, with the exception of books, will be accepted at the door!
- You don’t need to donate to participate!
No Registration Required. Open to all ages. Children must be accompanied by a parent/guardian.
This program is made possible by the generous donations made to the Friends of the Thomas Crane Public Library.
