New format and new space for this family-friendly swap: The FCE Loft @ Kenton Church.

The North Portland Free Clothing Exchange is a free community event held bi-monthly at the Kenton Church on North Lombard Street. Everyone is welcome. All sizes of Men’s, Women’s, and Children’s clothing will be exchanged.

Special collection of winter items. Help neighbors stay warm by exchanging specific items:

• Winter jackets

• Winter shoes

• Men’s pants

• Sweatshirts

• Men’s & women’s socks (must be new)

There is no requirement that you donate to take part in the exchange, but if you have an extra jacket or pair of warm shoes in your closet that you think would look better warming up a friend, bring it.

Help make this first indoor event fun and safe for everyone:

• Maintain 6 feet of social distancing once inside

• Limit your "shopping" time to 15-20 minutes

• Respect the host's space by sticking to the FCE Loft area

• Be extra patient if there's a wait at the door

All volunteers and exchangers are asked to follow CDC guidelines. The current guidelines are wearing a mask and keeping a social distance of 6 feet unless you are fully vaccinated.

Learn how it works before attending. These events need volunteers too!
