Clean out your closets SWAP-O-RAMA-RAMA
is Here! Pass it on * 2nd Annual Swap-o-rama-rama at HSC Conference 2009 Saturday August 7, 10am-5pm AND any
sized bag of your clean unwanted clothing required to enter Join in the communal
process of reuse and celebrate our collective creativity! You are invited to Swap-O-Rama-Rama, a giant clothing swap and series
of do-it-yourself workshops in which a community explores reuse and creativity through the recycling of used clothing. It's easy to make the move from consumer to creator - and it's fun. At this Swap-O-Rama-Rama you'll find
a host of talent brought together to teach you how to transform your new/used duds into works of your own. Together they
bring you: DIY Stations where you can learn many wonderful ways to create out of textile reuse, Sewing Stations where
local designers will teach you fresh clothing mod tricks, on site Silk Screeners & Stencilers with a host of
original designs and extraordinary local designers who'll show off their work in the Swap-O-Rama-Rama reuse
fashion show. Of course the core of the swap is the gigantic piles of free clothing
(several hundred pounds!) sorted into categories: pants, shirts, skirts, sweaters etc. These piles are the collective total
of each guest’s contribution of any size bag of unwanted clothes so clean out those closets and let go of what's
no longer inspiring. Take home as much clothing as you can carry. Remainders go to a local charity. Wondering what to bring? http://swaporamarama.org/swapattend.htm Swap-O-Rama-Rama is a Creative Commons Project: "This Swap-O-Rama-Rama event is part of
