WeWiN Clothing, Gear & Book Swap AND Explore Pease Park!

Who doesn’t love free clothes, outdoor gear and books? Who doesn’t love helping the environment? Who doesn't need to let go of clothes and gear that we no longer use? Please join us in cleaning out our closets and bringing clothing, shoes, accessories, and/or camping gear that is in good condition and no longer brings us JOY to pass on to our WeWiN community!

After dropping by and swapping clothes, we will encourage our WeWiN community to check out the renovated portion of Pease Park called Kingsbury Commons. Pease Park was Austin's first city park, an 84 acre urban forest on sacred ground that was once home to the Lipan Apache, Tonkawa, and Comanche Nations.

Everyone is welcome to join and bring friends, and if possible, we invite all participants to donate items. At the end of the event, all leftover items will be donated to organizations supporting unhoused and underserved Austin women.

Bring a bag to take home your haul and water, sunscreen, etc. if you are hanging out and/or checking out the park.

If you are NOT able to join us at this event but *have clothes you would like to donate, or are willing to VOLUNTEER at this event please contact Rhonda through meetup, text or at rhonda@imaginework.com*.

Well behaved and leashed dogs are welcome at this event.

We will gather for the clothing swap at the picnic tables at the corner of Kingsbury Street and Parkway. There is a very small lot and limited street parking near the entrance, and plenty of ***street parking is available further North along Parkway ***with gravel paths connecting you to Kingsbury. Volunteers will be available to help with clothing drop-off so that you can park and walk to the event. Bathrooms are also available at this location.
