Community Maker Swap - Spryfield

This is a community gathering where all abilities are welcome. The concept is simple: bring anything you have made with your hands or a voucher for a service you can offer, and trade for treasures from others. There is no money exchanged and PERFECTION IS NOT REQUIRED! We celebrate you for showing up and appreciate your willingness to share your talents and passion projects with others in the community. Here are a few insights for those new to the Makers Swaps: a) All are welcome. Share the event with your friends so they get a ticket too! b) Everyone brings what they feel comfortable giving to the community – there are no expectations or limitations – our definition of fairness is that each person will share within their means, which has always resulted in amazing generosity and abundance. c) All items brought will go on a common table together. After spending time getting to know each other, we will take turns going up to take items from the table, one item at a time, until each person decides they have taken enough to be “fair” to the community. Some popular homemade items (to get your creative juices flowing): preserves, jam, fresh eggs, soaps, plants, meals and snacks, homegrown fruit and vegetables, jewelry, leather crafts, wooden carvings, dog toys and treats, paintings and knitted items, welded hooks, baked goods, etc. There seems to be no limit to what could be swapped! Accessibility note: This park is fairly flat and parking is available on the side street or at Sobeys. Please use caution when crossing the road. If you have any questions, please email me at [email protected] or ask our active community on our Facebook page. We are looking forward to seeing you soon, Steph and Melissa Join our Facebook page to stay in the loop for more LSH events in the Spryfield / Halifax community and to connect with other makers --> https://www.facebook.com/groups/5611243705616854/ Check out www.lifeschoolhouse.com for more information on the grassroots folkschools model.
