Event Details

Cancelled: “Swap-O-Rama-Rama” DIY Workshop & Clothing Swap | Oakland

Please note, Swap-O-Rama-Rama is no longer taking place.

Swap-O-Rama-Rama is a nonprofit community clothing swap with a do-it-yourself workshop in which attendees explore the process of reuse and collective creativity together.

Every third Saturday of the month (except for May when they’re at the Maker Faire), they host a meetup where they encourage beginners to experts alike to come, bring clothes and ideas, and swap it like it’s hot. Share and learn ideas of how to repurpose anything and everything into clothing, home decor, and beyond.

Who doesn’t have a clothing pile they have meant to work on? This month, guest host Sarah is going to lead any and all amateur sewers in the fine details of mending sewing. Fix your clothes in a fashionable way to save money and be stylish. Don’t know how to sew a button on? Want to fix your jeans hems? We can teach you how.

Get together to socialize while you swap clothes and ideas. They’ll supply sewing machines and all the tools you need. Bring clothes to swap, any supplies you’d like for the DIY project, and a friend. Food and beverage are always encouraged, so if you can, bring a finger food to share.

Disclaimer: Please double check event information with the event organizer as events can be canceled, details can change after they are added to our calendar, and errors do occur.
