6:30 pm - 7:30 pm
Clothing swaps are a fun way to update your wardrobe without adding to the overflowing textile waste problem.
When: 6.30pm, Friday, June 19th
Where: Studio 2, The Arts Village, 1240 Hinemaru St, Rotorua 3010
Tickets: $5 per person, includes snacks. REGISTRATIONS ARE ESSENTIAL.
Clothing Swap For a Cause:
We'll have the spotlight on Predator Free Rotorua to raise awareness and funds for the local backyard trapping programme. You'll be able to take home a FREE backyard trap with your swaps!
Please arrive at 6:30pm to allow us time to hang out your clothes before the clothes swap commences at 7:00pm.
Snacks and non-alcoholic drinks will be provided whilst you mingle and wait for the clothes swap to begin.
What to bring:
- Bring a MAXIMUM of 10 garments. Please ensure the garments have NO STAINS, HOLES, and are in overall good condition. A good rule of thumb is to bring only things that you would be happy to receive yourself.
- We also ask that you please DON'T BRING garments from THE WAREHOUSE or KMART e.g. GARAGE and ANKO. We have found that people don't want them, meaning we end up with a pile of clothes from these brands after the clothes swap.
- Only bring garments you are ready to part with.
- If you’re bringing fabric, please make sure it’s a useable size for someone else. Hang onto your scraps for another event!
- Bring some gold coins incase you want to purchase additional garments after swapping
How it works:
- You will get a token for each garment you have bought in to swap (10 MAXIMUM).
- If your garments haven't been swapped by the end, please take them home with you.
- Each token can be used to 'purchase' a garment.
- If you use up all your tokens, you can purchase additional garments for a gold coin donation.
