On Saturday, June 27, 12 – 5 PM, come by The Arts Center’s Main Gallery and pick out some new-to-you items for your wardrobe. All items are free! Leading up to the event, clean, gently used clothing for men, women, and children will be accepted at The Arts Center, June 23 – 26 (Tuesday – Friday) 12 – 5 PM. Clothes will not be accepted on the day of the swap.
Leftover clothes will be donated to local thrift stores. Please keep this in mind as you choose the items you contribute to this event. Our local stores cannot sell stained, ripped or otherwise damaged clothing. This event is being held in conjunction with The Frimpong Case exhibition. If you would like to volunteer to help with this event, please contact Jennie at curator@theartscenter.net
