Plus Size Clothing Swap in Rogers Park
Advertisement
For femme, masc, and non-binary plus-size folx. Out with the old, in with the new (to you)! Refresh your wardrobe without spending a dime. We hope to have a wide selection in sizes adult XL-6x and 14-26. There is no fee and no requirement to donate in order to take something home. This is about mutual aid, community care, and keeping clothing out of landfills. I'll be bringing a room divider to create a fitting room space. RSVPing in advance isn't required but is appreciated so we can plan accordingly. All unclaimed items will be donated. Have a suggestion for where to donate? Let us know here: https://forms.gle/hvwnJELE4Jb9ue1w8
