Here's how it works:

We will have a freebie table that you can leave these items on if you don’t want to take them home with you.These items will be free for the taking on swap day.
- each bundle will be worth 1 ticket. You will receive a receipt for your drop off, which you will have to present on swap day to receive your tickets, so don’t lose the receipt!
- your items must be dropped off BEFORE the swap. We’ll have the Gallery open on Thursday March 16th and Friday March 17th between 4pm and 6pm for you to drop off your items.
- There is a $5.00 fee to participate in the swap to cover the cost of the use of the Gallery space for the day.
- on Saturday March 18 the swap will open at 12 noon and participants will be let in on a first come basis, we do anticipate a line up and we can only allow a certain amount of people at a time. Bring your own shopping bags and exchange your tickets for new-to-you supplies.
