The 2025 Quaker Holiday Market is just around the corner and we know many of you are putting together donatable items right now. At this time, we have reached our storage and display limit for furniture donations, so we ask that those with furniture to donate find an alternative recipient. We will still accept donations from the list below in the pod in the parking lot starting November 13th to November 29th and inside the meetinghouse or on the front porch starting November 30th through December 5th. Please direct any questions about donatable items and drop-off procedures to market@annapolisfriends.org. Quaker Markets present the potential to fulfill a variety of roles including raising funds and awareness for our selected causes, building community, and providing an outlet for individuals to simplify their lives by donating items in good condition that are no longer needed, so that they can be connected with folks who need them.
We accept a wide variety of donations including:
- auto supplies
- bedding
- books
- camping
- CDs and DVDs
- children's books and toys
- clothing and accessories
- craft and art supplies
- fine art
furniture (light enough to be moved by two people, get pre-approval*)- gardening supplies
- holiday items
- housewares and small (working) appliances
- jewelry
- musical instruments
- pet supplies
- sporting goods
- stationary
- tools
- vintage
If there is something we've missed, please just ask.
We are unable to accept:
- Audio cassettes

Quaker Markets are held twice a year, the first Saturdays in May and December. We accept donations starting the Sunday prior to Quaker Market, and earlier by arrangement if our storage space permits.
