press release: It is time once again for Absolutely Art’s award winning Re-Art SWAP.  We are proud to be partnering once again with MadCity Bazaar and new this year, Winnebago Studios (2046 Winnebago St.)!  This is your opportunity to clean out your studios, closets and garages of art supplies and useable items.  Bring them to our Re-Art SWAP and try something new!

Plus shop from local makers, collectors, and small batch producers at MadCity Bazaar.  Enjoy live music, food carts and a few surprises throughout the day!

How do you SWAP?  Bring your items to Winnebago Studios and we will assist you in finding the tables where they belong. Then wander the aisles of items to find your inspiration. Bring your own bag or box to carry your new found treasures home, remember this is a green event. Trades are made on a “leave what you don’t want, take what you will use” basis. No items to trade? That’s OK, we simply ask for a $5 contribution. These contributions go towards supporting and creating vending opportunities for local entrepreneurs and nonprofits.

Ideas for trade and donation: beads, broken ceramic items, brushes, buttons, calendars, cardboard and mat board, clay, crayons, fabric samples, findings, gears, glass, industrial scrap/end caps & rolls, magazines, metal, office supplies, old vases, packing material, paint, paint swatches, pens, pencils, wood, paper, wallpaper books, screws, spools, stock photos, tools, unused yarn & string...

Volunteers are needed for this event. Please contact Meghan Blake-Horst at (608) 347-0267 or meghan@absolutelyartllc.com if you are interested in helping make this event a success! Shifts are available on Saturday, 8/6 between 7am-5pm.  Refreshments will be provided for volunteers.
