Meet The Hosts

Always wanting to have a clothing swap, Tania started her planning. After hearing Pebbles had hosted some, she reached and the two connected. Looking for a location, the Garde Arts Center was more than happy to host a community event that was also open to the youth. And here we are! Now entering our 2nd year!!

Thank You SO Much for Joining Us.
