As always, attendees bring unwanted, clean clothing to swap with others. But instead of one project, we'll offer 5,000 square feet of multiple clothing upcycling projects to turn loose the creativity of over 1,000 attendees. We'll supply sewing machines and tools, too.

  • Sewing Machine Lab with 20+ machines
  • Screen printing with Homeygrown
  • Special project workshops taught by local designers
  • Sew LED lights into clothing with the Crafty Avenger!
  • TrasHion Show featuring local upcycled clothing designers
  • Textile Talk Lounge: presentations & demonstrations all day
  • Your suggestions for more sewing/upcycling activities?...

Attendees can roll up their sleeves and upcycle some clothes with guidance from you!

VOLUNTEER PERKS: All volunteers get breakfast, lunch, coffee in the morning and all the free clothes you can carry! Sign up for at least 2 shifts, and receive free weekend pass to Maker Faire. If you share/teach a creative skill you have learned over years, like helping folks in the Sewing Machine Lab, and we'll even provide a small travel/parking stipend.
