Take part in a free clothing swap, plus sewing and embellishment activities. Participants will come away with a refreshed wardrobe and smart lessons about how to reduce, reuse, recycle, and compost.
Inspired by author Diana Kapp’s new book, Girls Who Green the World: Thirty-Four Rebel Women Out to Save the Planet, and the City of San Francisco’s Climate Action Plan, this event is co-produced by the San Francisco Department of the Environment and Kate Rosegard and Kirsi Harris of KK Swaps.
Rules and How To:
In addition to swapping your wardrobe, hear from author Kapp about inspiring women working to save the planet and hear directly from teens who are making a difference in their schools and community.
