The Seattle Share Fair

There’s been an amazing increase lately in the rather common practice of sharing. With the prevalence of online services and social media, simply having access to the “stuff” we all need is suddenly becoming far easier, cheaper, and more useful than ownership. As a result, sharing everything from bikes to cars to land itself is developing into common practice. Join us to celebrate this sharing revolution – and discover how you can participate – by spending an evening with a handful of Seattle organizations that are leading the charge!
