Join us for a fresh start this season with our May Masterpiece Clothes Swap — a sustainable, fun, and community-powered way to refresh your wardrobe!
It’s time to clear out your wardrobe and bring your gently used clothes, shoes, and accessories — and swap them for new-to-you items. It's free, eco-friendly, and a great way to connect with your community.
How It Works:
Arrive at 9.30am, bringing up to ten items (see below for details), help rack them up, then sit back and enjoy a coffee and light snacks while the rest of the clothing is prepared. At 10:30am (or when all clothes are racked) start to browse and try on clothes and leave at noon or sooner. Mirrors and changerooms available.
When the event finishes you can take or leave your items. Leftover items will be donated.
Why You’ll Love It:✔️ Refresh your style without spending a cent. ♻️ Support the circular economy and reduce textile waste. 👯 Meet like-minded folks in your community.
Let’s make space, share resources, and step into spring with lighter closets and brighter vibes!
Clothing items to bring per ticket holder:
Up to 10 items of clothing, accessories and shoes of any size.
Items must be clean and have no damage.
Good quality items only, no fast fashion unless it's of exceptional quality.
No dirty, broken, sportswear, bathers or underwear.
Items not fitting this description will be returned to you to take home.
This is a paid, slow fashion event focused on building thoughtful, long-lasting wardrobes. Whilst the intention to recycle is good, fast fashion items are often low quality and less likely to be re-loved, contributing to landfill. By swapping fewer, higher-quality pieces, we can make more sustainable choices. The small fee helps create a more intentional and considered experience for everyone.
