Jamaica Plain Time Exchange Birthday Party & Stuff Swap

Community event. Bring what you can & take what you need! Free cake.

The JP Time Exchange is turning 1, and it’s time for a party! Members and non-members, please join us for a Birthday Party and Stuff Swap on Saturday, February 27 at Urbano in the Brewery Complex near Stony Brook. No need to bring anything – feel free to come, browse the stuff, and take what appeals to you – or take nothing at all! You’ll also have a chance to learn more about the Exchange, brainstorm your own gifts and needs, enjoy music and chat with great neighbors.

Join us to:

  • Give away unwanted items to your community (See guidelines below.)
  • Pick up stuff that you do want
  • Learn about the Time Exchange and hear stories about how it can help you
  • Get help with the Time Exchange website
  • Share info about your gifts and needs on our Gift and Need Wall
  • Join the Exchange!

Members can earn Hours for volunteering at this event! Contact Sarah if you can help, sarah@localcircles.org.

About the JP Time Exchange: In a Time Exchange, members share skills and provide services for each other, such as cooking, sewing, carpentry, pet care, health care, and much more. When you provide an hour of service, you are credited with one “TimeHour” in your online account. You can use that Hour for services you need or want that other members are offering – like child care or massage! Read more here.
