Share&Swap Shop

17/06/2026

To celebrate 40th Anniversary of Linden New Art is throwing a massive House Party, and if you're a Port Phillip local, you are warmly invited! 🥳

​We will throw a massive Art & Craft Swap, but the afternoon has lots more to offer:

🎨 A hands-on collage workshop with artist Zoya Godoroja-Prieckaerts
🖼️ An exclusive tour of this year’s highly anticipated Postcard Show, led by our curator Hamish Sawyer
🌭 A classic sausage sizzle
🎶 Open decks—bring your own records and spin some tracks!

​✨ HOW THE SWAP WORKS:
Got pre-loved, unused art supplies or small finished pieces gathering dust? Share up to 5 non-bulky items to drop off between 1:00 PM – 3:30 PM, then score some new-to-you treasures during Free Shopping from 1:30 PM – 4:00 PM!

​❌ No items to share? NO PROBLEM! You are still totally welcome to come along, soak up the community vibes, and take home some creative goodies.

​Whether you’re a professional artist, a weekend hobbyist, or just curious, everyone is welcome. Come for the party, stay for the creativity!

​👇 Tag your favorite crafting buddy and save the date!
