Queer Brooklyn Clothing Swap
Some friends of mine tried to have a pre-fall party way before the Fall season came, but after all the planning and talking about it, we never really got to it. Maybe for the next season… This brings me to this event that Tom pointed out to me, Queer Brooklyn Clothing Swap. A clothing swap! Perfect! I am gonna be honest with you I don’t know the people behind this event, but it says queer and we are in the same city. According to their Facebook page the folks organizing this have “a lot of clothing we don’t wear anymore. We think there might be other folks in this same predicament. How about we swap clothing?” Yeah exactly, that’s a great idea. Here’s how it works, “free entry with (clean) clothes to swap or a light refreshment (we will never say no to food). $5 suggested donation otherwise. No one turned away for lack of funds. All leftover clothing will be donated to an LGBTQ organization (any recommendations are welcomed!).” Basically if you can’t find things to swap it’s a great way for you to donate your clothes to a LGBT organization. This event is at someone’s home, so it’s gonna feel a bit weird at first, but then once you say hello and swap some clothes, drink some alcohol and eat some snacks I think it should be just fine. These people seem chill.
