just a last minute quicky to let portlanders know about the craft swap at the 100th monkey studio tomorrow (well technically today, saturday)! it’s from 1 to 4 at 110 SE 16th Ave, which is near burnside. the last one i went to i got so much super awesome stuff!! i’ll be a volunteer, and i’ll be bringing my old hp photo printer, in perfect condition, i just don’t need it anymore, hoping to find it a good home. pasted from the studio newsletter:
Bring art materials that have been collecting dust around the house and trade them for some new inspiration!
Please bring any art or craft materials that you aren’t using anymore. We’re open to pretty much everything paints, (clean) fabrics, yarn, beads, buttons, pens and pencils & paper.
The only stuff we’re not looking for are those random cast-off things you’ve been hanging onto in case that perfect project comes along. You know . . . those paper-towel tubes and items that would be better off in the recycle bin.
There is no admission fee for this event. We do ask that you bring something to swap. We are not placing limits on what people take, but we hope everyone will respect that this is a community event, and leave plenty for everyone else.
Left over materials will be split up and donated to the Children’s Relief Nursery, Janus Youth, Art From the Heart & Rise Above.
