TRIO Teacher Preparation Program

Have too many clothes you don't wear? Looking for new clothes? Need to swap for a few new pieces?

Come to our clothing swap Wednesday, April 6th 10:00am – 6:00pm at the MakerLab in Alberstons Library, 2nd floor, room 201

Bring your unwanted clothes to a clothing swap and/or bring clothes in need of repair to learn basic strategies to get them back in your rotation.

Clothes, jewelry, shoes, and accessories are all welcome. We will also have mending workshops throughout the day where you can learn to alter, mend or embellish clothing that you would like to keep. The MakerLab has a number of sewing machines (and a bedazzler to embellish) you can learn to use.

Please drop all clothing off prior to the event in the TRIO Office (ED 222) Please only bring clean clothes that are in good condition (no holes or stains.)

Mending workshops will be held at 11:00am – 12:00pm and 1:00pm – 2:00pm.
