Get Ready to Swap!

On Saturday, September 24th, CREATE Arts Center in partnership with  Think Outside the Store will be hosting 
Swap-O-Rama-Rama!

With fall underway and winter just around the corner, it’s time to revamp your wardrobe—with your neighbor’s clothes! At Silver Spring Swaporama-rama, area residents bring a bag of clothes to share, and take home as many clothes as they want. The donated items, drawn from closets throughout the community, provide a wide variety of options to choose from. Leftover clothes will be used for clothing art projects or donated to a local charity. 

The event doubles as the grand opening of Think Outside the Store, a new clothing art studio in downtown Silver Spring where area residents can order custom made clothing and accessories, or learn how to make their own! Swappers will have access to the Think Outside the Store sewing room to modify their finds. Sarah Gingold, clothing artist and founder of the studio, will be on hand to provide assistance with sewing, as well as sewing demonstrations throughout the event.

When: Saturday Sept. 24th from 3:00-7:00pm

Where: CREATE Arts Center & Think Outside the Store
816 Thayer Avenue, Floor 1

What to bring: A suggested $5 donation and a bag of your clean, unwanted clothes. 

 See you there!
