Love art but think you can’t afford it? Axel’s Gallery & Frame Shop’s upcoming annual Art Swap will give customers a chance to sell and pick up second-hand art pieces.

The event allows sellers to pass along a piece of art they no longer want and buyers can acquire them for a fraction of their worth. All items will be priced at $200 or less with many under $100. 

The rules:

• Maximum of three submissions per seller

• Artwork must have been made by someone other than the seller.

• Sale price must be marked at no more than $200.

• Artwork must be in good condition.

Sellers may choose to get 100% of sale price in store credit or 75% in cash after the sale. Drop off art work on Saturday, April 30, between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Pick up unsold pieces 4-6 p.m. on Saturday, May 7.
