OurGoods is a community network that operates through the barter of goods and services. Their pop-up storefront Trade School, operates out of Manhattan’s Lower East Side, offering a series of nightly classes hosted by a range of specialized teachers from January 25th-March 1st 2010; participants secure a spot in a Trade School class by meeting one of the teacher’s barter needs.
During the daytime, visitors can barter with artists, designers, and craftspeople for their products or services.
