ART bARTer mART
A neighborhood art swap.
The ART bARTer mART is a place where you can make art, take art, leave art or be art. The mART’s 27 drawers are open for any kind of creative swapping: drawings, paintings, poems, zines, photos, cards, stories, macrame, prints -- whatever your crazy heart desires.
Here's how it works:
LOOKING FOR some ART? Look inside the drawers labeled “TAKE ART” to find a piece of art that you'd like for your own. Admire it, bring it home, give it to someone, keep it as long as you like, or swap it out for another piece of art later.
GOT SOME ART TO SWAP? Wonderful! Just pick a drawer with the “LEAVE ART” label and put your work inside. Be sure to put your name and contact info (if you wish) so that whoever takes your art knows who you are and can tell you how much they love your piece. Any type of art you can fit into the 9(w) x 12(d) x 3(h) drawer is welcome!
WANT TO MAKE SOME ART TO SWAP? Cool! Check out the top middle drawer labeled “SUPPLIES” and get to work.
The mART will lived outside Modern Art at 529 W. Chestnut Street in Lancaster, PA during the fall of 2020 and Spring/Summer 2021. Check out some of our friendly neighborhood artists and the artwork they swapped below:
