Clothing Swap Party

for free
Admission to the exhibition is not included

Sharing brings joy and makes room for something new!

Bring along well-preserved clothes that you no longer wear, and discover new favorites among the treasures others have brought. Instead of buying new things, we swap what we already have—it’s sustainable, creative, and community-oriented. In conjunction with our current exhibition, which explores the theme of “sharing” in its various facets, we invite you to a clothing swap party.

Do your clothes show signs of wear or need to be altered?
No problem—in collaboration with Transition Town Bielefeld’s Repair Café, they can be repaired right away, either before or after the swap—giving your new favorite items a new lease on life.

The new find has potential, but it’s still missing that certain something?
There will also be an upcycling station where you can add a personal touch to the clothes you’ve just swapped through creative alterations or custom embellishments.

Whether it’s for swapping, repairing, crafting, or just browsing and chatting. Come by and see how sharing leads to new connections.

The event is part of the cooperation project “Building Bridges – Creative and Sustainable”. This is a joint project of the Bildungsstätte Einschlingen, the IBZ Friedenshaus e.V. and the Kunsthalle Bielefeld. The aim of the project is to bring people from different backgrounds together through shared interests. The project aims to help people come into contact with each other beyond their usual social groups.
