🌟 SWAP DENVER: The Ultimate Community Exchange 🌟
Hosted by AW Exclusives, AND DNVR, and The Clothing Cycle
Saturday, August 23 | 10AM – 12PM📍 Hot Shot Coffee
🎟️ $15 advanced cover / $25 day of cover – Cover includes entry where you can take as much as you’d like! Your ticket supports the organizers, volunteers, and redistribution of leftover items to local mutual aid and nonprofits.
Join three of Denver’s biggest swap communities for a one-of-a-kind event that brings together everything you love about fashion, art, plants, and sustainable living—all in one place. This isn’t just a clothing swap. This is SWAP DENVER.
🌀 What is a Swap?
A swap is a community-powered event where people bring gently used items they no longer need—and take home new-to-them treasures. Think of it as shopping, but circular, collaborative, and conscious. No price tags. No checkout lines. Just pure exchange.
Whether you're dropping off a funky jacket, picking up a new plant baby, or swapping your extra art supplies, you're keeping beautiful items out of the landfill and giving them a second life.
Swaps aren’t just good for your closet—they’re good for the planet, your wallet, and your local community. They’re a joyful reminder that what we already have is often enough—it just needs to find the right home.
