Craft Supply Swap

How it Works ✅

Drop-off Dates: Wednesday-Friday, April 30-May 2 and Saturday, May 3, 2025

Drop off your new or gently used supplies to the Old Lumberyard (122 North F Street, Livingston, MT 59047) during the week of the swap. We will add your name to a list of swappers when you drop off supplies to get early entry on swap day.

• • Weekday drop-off times: Wednesday, Thursday, Friday (April 30 to May 2): 12-3pm 

  • Day of drop-off: Saturday, May 3, 11-12pm

Early drop-off locations so you only need to make one trip to Livingston for the Swap - be sure to sign your name on the drop-off list to get early entry on swap day! **As a courtesy to our drop-off locations, please check in with the Swap before leaving more than 1 box of materials so we can arrange to pick them up early and free up space.
