Give your Old Toys a New Story! Come to Open Space’s Second Annual Toy Swap on December 10th.

No need to leave out cookies or buy tickets to the North Pole. Open Space for Arts & Community is proud to host the second annual Toy Swap on December 10th from 12-4pm. Share your used toys with a new generation of Vashon kids who will love them, or pick up new-to-you gifts without the economic or ecological impact. 

The community is invited to drop off clean, lightly-used toys at Open Space for Arts & Community on December 5th, 6th, and 7th from 3-6pm in marked bins by the Open Space for Arts & Community main entrance. Beginning at 12pm on December 10th, there will be large tables set up in the Open Space main lobby. All are invited to swing by between 12 and 4pm to drop off toys or collect some from the tables as they fill up.

The Toy Swap will not accept the following:

• Dirty, broken, ripped, chipped, ragged, chewed, marked items
• Baby gear (car seats, strollers, cribs, play yards)
• Anything with missing parts or in disrepair 
• Items with possible cutting, choking, or lead hazards
• Oversized items may be accepted at our discretion

There is no cost to participate and all are welcome to drop off or pick up gifts. Participants may pick up or drop off items, and do not need to show up with items in order to participate. The goal is to provide the island with an opportunity to find children’s gifts for the holidays without the expense and financial impact of buying new ones. Please email info@openspacevashon.com with any questions. See you there!
