Meta Incidental Gift Swap

Why spend money on gifts when you can exchange?


On Sunday the 16th, bring a couple of (nice) things* from home which you no longer want or need but which someone else might love, and come exchange them for others’ goods which you or someone you know will treasure. Wrap them up real nice and gift them: save yourself some dough, save the environment some trash, and make space in your life for new things = all good.


The Meta Incidental Gift Swap was inspired by Ophra's recent performance gig at the MoMA as part of the Meta Monumental Garage Sale. To read more about what set this in motion, go to: http://blog.forceandflow.com/?p=442

This event is FREE and open to the public.


*things to bring:
books, dvds, cds, housewares, kitchen ware in good condition, artwork, plants… clothes only if they are in great shape. I mean, you get the point: it’s not your typical clothing swap, so you can be creative, but bring something you or someone you know might like to get as a gift. And bring your friends too, the more the merrier.
