Trade in clothes you don't need and shop sustainably for free!

Time

12:00pm - 5:00pm

Location 358 Gordon St, Guelph ON

Price Free

Ready to refresh your wardrobe—for free? Drop in anytime between 12 – 5 pm on Wednesday, January 15, at the Art Gallery of Guelph for a curated clothing swap hosted by Drop and Cop, a University of Guelph student-led club that promotes a circular economy. Bring your clean, gently used items and earn credits to shop for new-to-you pieces.

Please note that some items are not eligible for swap, including accessories, undergarments, children’s clothing, items with event logos, and those in poor condition as determined by the Drop and Cop team. Check out their Instagram post outlining all you need to know. Each swapper can bring up to 10 items and can receive up to 20 credits. Due to surplus, Drop and Cop currently cannot accept jeans under a size 8. Check out the Dos and Don’ts of Drop and Cop swapping!
