The non-profit organization GrowNYC hosts this event at Brooklyn Borough Hall on Thursday 4/23 from 12 – 3 pm. The public is invited to bring portable, reusable items to share or simply come see what is free for the taking. Items donated typically include books, toys, fashionable clothing, house wares and electronics. No one is required to bring something to take something—you can simply show up with a bag to fill with items. Anything leftover at the end of the day is donated or recycled. Furniture and other large items are not accepted at the swap.
Advance drop-offs will be available for those looking to clear out closets and drawers, but unable to make the swap. Brooklyn Borough Hall will accept items from Monday, April 20–
Wednesday, April 22 from 8 am–7 pm at the Joralemon St entrance. Items left at Brooklyn Borough Hall and the market will be displayed for the taking at the event, which starts at 12 pm.
