Today’s Feature: The Exchange

A Maker Fest favorite is back this year! Make sure to stop by the Art Cart, and make your own craft using recycled materials! The Exchange is a non-profit organization dedicated to bringing the arts to all communities throughout our region.

Since the summer of 2015, the Exchange has brought art projects and supplies to more than 50 venues throughout our area, from the Bloomsburg YMCA and Kiwanis day camps and The Children’s Museum to Brookdale Bloomsburg Senior Living and Balanced Care, as well as the Danville Child Development Center; the Bloomsburg, Danville, and Berwick public libraries; and many of the special-needs camps at Camp Victory outside of Millville.  We make monthly visits with the seniors living at Bloomsburg Towers, Vintage Knolls, Nazareth Memory Center, and other places.

Our facilitators bring projects in many media, including painting and drawing, cut-out paper, and sculpture.  They tailor the projects to any age group and any size group.  We do not expect to teach anyone how to draw or how to paint, but we do something more important: Every person has beauty inside, and we help each Art Cart participant bring that beauty out.
