ART BOOK SWAP

artSPACE durban will launch its first Annual Art Book Swap on October 11.

The Art Book Swap is going to be a great reason to go through one's library and de-clutter the books that are no longer wanted or needed. Then bring those books to artSPACE durban and find new and other interesting books.

The Swap will and should be fun. There are a few simple rules. This is a swap: books cannot be bought or sold for money. All books will be categorized in three categories: up to R50 = 1 point, R50 to R150 = 2 points, R150 and over = 3 points.

As you bring your books into artSPACE Durban, you will end up with a total number of points and which establishes your "buying power". You may bring in more books and swap at any time during the swap period adding to or reducing your points.

artSPACE Durban will only accept books in good and clean condition. The only cost involved is artSPACE’s administrative charge of R5 per point on taking books out, there being no charge to bring books in. All points expire worthless on the closing date of November 27 at 13h00. All books not swapped at that time will be donated to local schools.

“So, de-clutter and refresh your library,” says artSPACE. “If nothing else, for a short time you also have reduced the "to be dusted" space. And of course, swapping is healthy for your credit card and the environment!”

The Art Book Swap runs from October 11 at 10h00 to November 27 at 13h00. artSPACE durban is situated at 3 Millar Road (off Umgeni Road) close to the Waste Centre. More information on 031 312 0793 or visit www.artspacedurban.co.za or www.artspacedurban.blogspot.com
