Soccer cleats too small but in great shape? Yarn stash starting to over flow? Changing up your home décor? Bring your items and swap them for something to better suit you in your next season. Each month will have a specific theme for items we’ll be swapping (keep an eye out for lists with more info on what will be accepted). Please only bring items that are in good and working condition.

This series is in partnership with the South Portland Sustainability Department, as an extension of their Swap Shop: "Swapping goods is a great way to reuse and reduce the quantity of materials entering the waste stream, while building community connections".
All items that go unclaimed at the end of the evening will be donated to a local organization to help get those items into the hands of those who need them.
