Join us for a fun-filled day at the **Back-to-School Community Clothing Swap** on Saturday, August 23rd, from 11:00 AM to 3:00 PM at CHAIR (Cultures, Humanities, and Arts on the Iron Range). This free and sustainable event is a great way for families to refresh their kids’ wardrobes before the school year starts. Bring clean, gently-used clothing in good condition—from infants to adults—as well as accessories like backpacks, shoes, and belts to swap for items your family needs. Tables will be sorted by size to make the selection easy. While parents explore the swap, children can engage in Open Art activities in the gallery, where all ages are welcome to unleash their creativity in a safe and comfortable space, with supplies provided. No exact trades are required; just swap fairly and help keep good clothes out of landfills. If you'd like to donate items early, drop-offs are accepted the night before from 6-8 PM or at the event's start time. Any leftover items will support local shelters and charities. Save money, reduce waste, and connect with your community! #ClothingSwap #BackToSchoolSwap #CommunityReuse #CHAIRevents
