Swap-o-rama-rama is a clothing swap and wearable art creation event where all your fabulous fashion fantasies can come true!
The swap begins with a giant collective pile of clothing, the unwanted costumes of all who attend. Everyone is welcome to dive in and find their next new/used items from the pile. Take as little or as much clothing from this pile as you like, it's all free!
After you have chosen your new dandy duds, slide on over to a transformation station, where you can cut, sew, glue, paint, bedazzle, and otherwise renew someone else's rags into your riches. Materials and a few sewing machines will be available to help you unleash your well-dressed muse. Or, attend a workshop where you can learn to modify your re-fashioned finds in unexpected ways.
An all day participatory runway will feature the silly, the sophisticated, and the sublime. All are invited to take a playful spin down the runway in their most fabulous fashionry. Ask the audience for their opinion on the outfit you just plucked from the pile... or just show off!
Swap-o-rama-rama is coming to Vancouver and will take place April 15,
2007 from 11:00 to 4:00 p.m. at the Heritage Hall.

Passing this along, because it sounds awesome. I'm planning to be there around noon. Anyone else?

This sounds like fun. I'll probably be busy marking, however.
Just an update for anyone who might drop by: admission is $5.
