Bless This Mess: NPC Swap Meet
Time: 10:00 am – 1:00 pm
Northminster Presbyterian Church
This event will allow anyone interested to bring their gently used clothes, toys, books, movies, linens, appliances, recipes, etc. to this swap meet to do just that — swap goodies, mingle, enjoy some fall refreshments, and have a great time with our church family and neighbors! No prices will be listed or expected for items, so please bring things you are comfortable parting with at no cost to the "buyer."
If you're planning to bring items, help us plan numbers using the link below by Wednesday, October 30th. Please note that you do not have to bring items in order to attend and take home any new items but we do recommend bringing a reusable bag!
Please refer to the lists below for examples of items that are (and are not) allowed. Any unclaimed items will be donated to various shelters and organizations around Indianapolis. Set-up for those bringing items will begin at 9:30 am. This event is open to anyone inside and outside our congregation, so spread the word!
If you are unable to attend but still want to donate items for people to look through, there will be a drop-off time on Friday, November 1st from 10:00 am - 12:00 pm at Northminster.
