I saw an article in the Post-Gazette and this event is happening very close to us! http://communityvoices.sites.post-gazette.com/index.php/arts-entertainment-l...
From the article:Gather your unwanted clothing and accessories and donate them to the community-wide clothing swap, Redd Up Thread Up on November 12-13, 2011. In its third installment, Redd Up Thread Up has partnered with Assemble, the Greater Pittsburgh Community Food Bank, and The Pittsburgh Tote Bag Project. 100% of the proceeds will go towards the Greater Pittsburgh Food Bank. Donations of gently used men’s and women’s clothing and accessories will be accepted November 7-11, 2011, from 4-8 pm at Assemble (5125 Penn Avenue). If you make a clothing donation, you will received a reusable tote bag at a discounted price ($5 on Saturday, Free on Sunday). If you do not make a clothing donation, you can purchase a bag for $10 Saturday and $5 Sunday. Purchasing a tote bag gets you admission to the event and all the clothing you want!
