swap * meet is a social gathering with an aim to find creative solutions for getting rid of unwanted clothing and textiles. Through this form of recycling, participants will benefit by discovering potential treasures, meeting like-minded people while satisfying the desire for attaining something 'new'. Swappers will not accumulate debt, guilt or stress from swapping.

Leftovers are sent to textile recyclers, upcycled as reusable items (i.e.: shredded and woven into new cloth), offered at the Really Really Free Market or donated to local charities.
