August Co-Ed Clothing Swap in Venice! ๐
โPlease join us for a co-ed clothing swap at Flow Life Sanctuary in Venice! ๐๐ฝ๐๐
Men, women, and children are all welcome. ๐ซถ๐ฝ
Bring your clothes, shoes, and accessories (clean and in good condition please) that you aren't wearing anymore, and go home with new ones. ๐
โPlease read through this invitation to make sure you have all the info โฌ๏ธ
โPlease arrive between 1:30 - 2 pm.
What to expect:
We all bring our clothes we are no longer wearing and set them up like a "store" on clothing racks and tables.
โAfter that we do a brief check-in circle, after which everyone gets to "go shopping" and select some fabulous new pieces to add to their wardrobes.
There will be mirrors and changing rooms so you can try clothes on.
We donate the extra clothes to underprivileged folks, who also get the "shopping" experience, but all the clothes are free.
$28 admission paid to our nonprofit (at the door)
โIf you are experiencing financial difficulties, please contact me at rkwoerner@gmail.com.
Our grassroots initiative Community Threads is now part of a 501(c)(3) nonprofit (Earth Rights Institute). So all monetary contributions are tax deductible.
This includes financial contributions from event sponsors.
EIN #30-0029920
I will have the Venmo code at the door.
If you'd like to pay in advance, you can Venmo @earth_rights_institute
โTIMING:
โโข Setup: from 1:30 - 2:30 pm (We will set up the clothes during this time on the clothing racks and tables ... no swapping yet!)
โโข Check-in circle: 2:30 pm
โโข And after the circle we will "shop" for new clothes (everything is free of course) ๐
โWe will donate the extra clothes to our partner nonprofit Hand to Hand to be shared with our neighbors who are less materially privileged.ย Hand to Hand hosts events where the clothes are set up like a โstoreโ so folks can โgo shoppingโ for clothes, but the clothes are free.
Clothing that is torn or stained will be taken to the Santa Monica College Fashion Department so the fabric can be upcycled into new clothing.
โYou can park on Lincoln Blvd or in the parking lot behind Panda Express.
Looking forward to seeing you! ๐ฅฐ
