We are a non profit gift shop operated mainly by volunteers in which consigned and purchased hand crafts, antiques and collectibles are sold and whose surplus funds are distributed according to local needs. Today there are nineteen such historic Exchanges remaining in the United States, and Old Lyme is fortunate to be home to one of them.

Now that you've learned a bit about the Woman's Exchange, why not stop by for a visit. We'd be happy to tell you more about our organization, to show you around our shop, or to help you to select the perfect gift for someone special.

If you have creative talent, perhaps you'd like to become a consignor, or, if you enjoy meeting new people, we're always looking for friendly, capable volunteers.
