WHAT IS A CLOSET RAID? An event where people get together who have cleaned out their (stylish) closets and want to sell their pre-loved clothing. They are starting to pop-up everywhere as a fun way to shop! It’s like a really fun garage sale but for clothes.
WHY ARE CLOSET RAIDS AWESOME? Not only do events like this keep textiles out of landfills, they are an opportunity to meet new people, listen to great music and hang out! They tend to have better quality and stylish clothing than thift stores because they are a curated style of one person and things people don’t just want to donate, but rather see items go to a loving home.
DO I HAVE TO BRING ANYTHING? If you are not a vendor you just bring yourself, some cash and some space in your closet for some new treasures! Oh, and a re-usable bag to carry things home in ;)
WHAT WILL BE AVAILABLE? There is a variety of styles and price ranges of clothing and homewares. From designer items to t-shirts, accessories and shoes, there will be a lot to choose from. This one has a heavy focus on spring/summer fashion, western wear and clothes for all genders.
WHY DOES IT COST MONEY? There are expenses involved in organizing such an event and any extra will go to running more amazing events in Kingston. Also - this one includes a drink! (Beer, selters and non-alcoholic options available)
HOW DO I GET INVOLVED IN THE NEXT ONE? If you have a lot of clothes you are ready to part with and would rather sell than just donate, this is the place for you! Send us a message if you are interested in having a rack for a future closet raid event!
