Jan 16, 2018, Queens, NY –New Yorkers looking to trade in last year’s fashions for some new-to-you looks or free up space by clearing out unwanted clutter are in luck! The Elmhurst Stop ‘N’ Swap®, a free reuse event organized by local non-profit GrowNYC, is the ultimate re-gifting party.
WHAT: Free Stop ‘N’ Swap Community Reuse Event
WHEN: Saturday, January 20, 12pm-3pm
WHERE: PS 13 Clement C. Moore, 5501 94th St, Queens, NY
The public is invited to bring clean, portable, reusable items to share with those who can use them. No one is required to bring something to take something — you can simply show up with a bag and see what’s free for the taking. Books, toys, fashionable clothing, housewares and electronics are just some of the offerings.
Stop ‘N’ Swaps have developed a regular following among thrifty and environmentally conscious New Yorkers. In response to increasing demand for the events, GrowNYC has set a goal of hosting one swap in each of the city’s 59 community districts each year.
Anything leftover at the end of the day is donated or recycled. Furniture and other large items are not accepted at the swap.
