Swap-O-Rama-Rama

Maker Faire Bay Area 2024

October 18th-20th

Storehouse Alley Exhibit Fashion

One of the largest volunteer-run clothing swaps and DIY sewing hackathons on every continent (except Antarctica). 11.3 million tons of textile waste end up in U.S. landfills annually; 6,000 lbs of which has been diverted here for your creative soul. We have sewing machines, knowledgeable volunteers, and diverse activities designed to encourage participants to think locally and impact globally with their textile waste. We will be accepting donations of CLEAN clothes and sewing supplies at the event. Donations are not required to participate just a creative urge. As always PLEASE NO SHOES!
