We covered the Autumn Swap-O-Rama-Rama event and it turned out to be a success. Not only did 500 people attend but 4,000 lbs of clothing was recycled! People learned about recycling textiles and became inspired as they made clothing items for the first time. For those of you that missed this fun event (and for those of you that want to attend again), the planning for the Winter Swap-O-Rama-Rama is underway. On February 12th from 2pm – 7pm, explore the reuse process through the recycling of used clothing, DIY workshops and a seasonal clothing swap. This event will be held at Galapagos Art Space in Brooklyn, New York. Just come with a bag of unwanted clothing (materials are free) and $10 and take home all the clothes you can carry! ::Swap-O-Rama-Rama
