Craft Swap Fall 2025 - Hosted by White Pine Books
Advertisement
The folks of White Pine Books will be hosting a Craft Swap event at the White Pine Community Center (1820 Maple St, White Pine, TN) on Saturday September 27, from 12pm to 4pm*.
Have a stash of art and craft supplies that might have gotten a bit out of control? Help support the community and encourage sustainable practice of your favorite hobbies!
Bring your new or gently used art/craft supplies to the Community Center in White Pine on Saturday September 27, between 12pm-4pm* and swap them for something new to you!
Can’t make it the day of the swap but still want to donate your materials? You can drop off your items at White Pine Books (during normal business hours) the week of the event, Sunday September 21 - Friday September 26. You may also bring items directly to the Community Center the day of, Saturday September 27, starting at 11am.
Those who bring or drop off items to swap will get first picks! The swap will be open exclusively to those who brought items (along with up to three guests) for the first hour, from 12pm to 1pm.
No items to bring? No problem! You are still more than invited to join us from 1pm-4pm and “shop” the supplies! Pick up a new hobby without the fear of spending a ton on supplies before you even know if you’ll enjoy it.
Want to learn more about the crafts you're interested in and put those new-to-you supplies to use? We'll be giving everyone who attends a 25% off coupon for White Pine Books that's good for the day of the swap!
Feel free to use this page to post pictures of what you plan to bring and check out what supplies might be available!
