A free community clothing swap and upcycling gathering!!
About this Event

Join us for an afternoon of making, mending, swapping, and connecting — no sewing skills, fashion sense, or climate expertise required.
Just bring yourself (and maybe a few tired garments) and come as you are.

Here's what's happening:

👜 Tote Bag Collage & Upcycling Workshop — Turn scraps and salvaged fabric into a one-of-a-kind tote you'll actually want to carry.

🧵 Mending Circle — Learn simple repair techniques in a relaxed, welcoming space. Give your favourite worn-out pieces a second life.

👕 Clothing Swap — Bring up to 10 items you no longer wear and trade them for something new-to-you. One person's castoff is another's new favourite.

🎨 Collaborative Awning Activity — Add your mark to a shared community art piece we'll create together.

🎧 Live DJ — Because good work deserves a good soundtrack.

This is a space to slow down, learn from your neighbours, and take small, joyful climate action together. Whether you come to swap, stitch, create, or just soak up the vibe — you belong here.

It's going to be SO much fun. Come hang out with us.

Free and open to all. Bring clean, gently used clothing for the swap (up to 10 items).
