All ages and all N Portland residents are invited to swapnplay (7535 n chicago) on Saturday, September 26th from 10am to 2pm. Bring last years clothes and exchange them for new-to-you clothing for the fall.

Tips for having a great experience at the exchange:

1) If you are not sure you can make it the day of the event but have items to share: drop off your donations the week before at swapnplay. Knock on the door and if no one answers feel free to leave your donations just outside the door. Donations will be accepted the day of the swap.

2) Come in the day of from 9-10am to help sort and display item for a great first peek at what’s available for swap.

3) Not sure if you will find what you are looking for?  It’s perfectly OK to shop before you swap selecting what you want for swap before adding what you want to give in return.

Items we love to see:

Clothes (infant to adult sizes) in good condition (no rips, tears or stains)

Backpacks, lunch boxes and book bags
