The annual Really Free Market recycling event will take place on Saturday, May 21, at the University of Alaska Fairbanks.

Items for the market are donated by the Fairbanks community. All items are free for the taking.

The market will be held in the lower dorms parking lot next to the Lola Tilly Commons.

Usable, clean, safe and nonperishable contributions can be dropped off from 8–10 a.m. The market itself opens promptly at 10 a.m. and closes at 11 a.m. There will be no selling, no bartering and no swapping.

After the market closes, unclaimed electronic items will go to Green Star of Interior Alaska. Books will go to the Literacy Council of Alaska. The Fairbanks Resource Agency's Closet Connections will receive the rest.
