About this Event

IT'S A BOO-TIQUE!!! 👻🎃

We're popping up at the Alderman's Offices highlighting HALLOWEEN! Come with your gently used costumes, clothing, and accessories to share with others in need. Or just come and shop for FREE.

The Mission

In the spirit of community, let's help one another! There are clothing swaps but none like this. We want you to have pride in your stride and it begins by being treated with dignity, respect and love, while being given access to amazing things. We aim to allow space for necessity to be met with grace.

Bring in your gently used clothing donations and shop for new things for yourself for FREE!

Please Note:

You are not required to give in order to receive, however, it does help.
No shoes, undergarments, toys or housewares. Clothing and accessories only.
Tickets are not required for entry.
Event open to the public.
Everything is FREE.
This event is to celebrate HALLOWEEN... please be sure to bring your gently used costumes. [We ALL have some hanging around that we're never really going to use. Sharing is caring! 🎃👻
