The Cranium Presents: Craft Supply & Gift Wrap Swap!
Saturday, December 7 | Drop-In: 2 – 4 PM
Early Bird Access starts at 2 PM; Open to Public at 2:30 PM
Community Meeting Room, Main Library, 40 Washington St. Quincy, MA
Join us to swap your craft supplies (and gift wrap) in time for the holiday season and end of the year cleaning!
*** ACCEPTING DONATIONS BETWEEN WEDNESDAY 12/4 – FRIDAY 12/6 ***
You can bring in supplies for a swap and get an “early bird” ticket to enter the swap early (2:00 – 2:30 PM)
before the event opens up fully to the public!
DONATION GUIDELINES:
- Bring all craft swap/gift wrap donations to the Reference Desk (2nd floor) between 12/4 – 12/6, any time the library is open. On Saturday, 12/7, donations will ONLY be accepted at the door between 2pm and 4pm.
- Follow the “friend rule”: if you wouldn’t give the donation to your friend, don’t bring it to the swap! Nearly empty bottles of paint, short bits of rope or yarn, fabric scraps less than 8″ square, etc., will not be accepted for the swap. Sets or kits do not need to be complete, but should still contain usable quantities of what materials there are.
- Please be thoughtful about the quantities you donate and take from the swap; it’s okay to donate more than you take or take more than you donate, but we want everyone to have a chance to find something fun!
- You don’t need to donate to participate!
Any donations not taken in the swap will either go to The Cranium, future library programs, or be donated.
No Registration Required. Open to all ages. Children must be accompanied by a parent/guardian.
The Cranium was supported by grant funds from the Institute of Museum and Library Services under the provisions of the federal Library Services and Technology Act as administered by the Massachusetts Board of Library Commissioners.
