June 8th Open House + Clothing Swap + Silkscreen Demo

Summer’s in full swing at the Box Shop.

CLOTHING SWAP + SILKSCREENING DEMO - OPEN HOUSE

Join us for a vibrant community event where fashion meets creativity! We’re opening our gates for a Clothing Swap & Silkscreen Demo — and you’re invited to participate in the magic.

Bring clean, gently used clothing to swap with neighbors and friends. Refresh your wardrobe, reduce waste, and support sustainable style.

Watch and learn as local artists, Tinsel Arcade, lead a hands-on silkscreen demonstration, and share some of their tips and trick for leveling up your look. 

📍 Where: The Box Shop – SF’s last industrial arts makerspace
📅 When: Sunday, June 8 from 12-4pm
🎟 Cost: Free! Donations welcome to support The Box Shop and local artists.

This is more than a swap — it’s a celebration of reuse, creativity, and community. Come ready to share, make, and shine. All ages welcome!

TOUR 130+ MURALS!
We commissioned local artists to paint more than 130 murals throughout the space. The Box Shop is one of the Bay Area's largest open-air mural art exhibits!

ENJOY THE SCULPTURE GARDEN!
Take a stroll in our succulent garden, where plants and sculptures blossom in harmony.

MEET THE ARTISTS!
The Box Shop is a haven for metalworkers, stone carvers, seamstresses, painters, woodworkers, sculptors, bicycle engineers, electronic car producers, and more. Bring your questions and quench your curiosity.

SEE WHERE MASSIVE ART IS BORN!
Colossal structures are created at The Box Shop. Some become treasured public art, like Entwined Meadow - an installation in Golden Gate Park in the winters of 2020-2024. We’re also a Burning Man arts community hub. Dozens of Playa sculptures and art cars are built at The Box Shop. Check out the space, machinery, tools, and people that make this magic possible!
