Summer’s in full swing at the Box Shop.
CLOTHING SWAP + SILKSCREENING EVENT + OPEN HOUSE
Join us for a vibrant community event where fashion meets creativity! We’re opening our gates for a Clothing Swap & Silkscreening Event — and you’re invited to participate in the magic.
Clothing Swap
Bring clean, gently used clothing to swap with neighbors and friends. Refresh your wardrobe, reduce waste, and support sustainable style.
Tinsel Arcade - Silkscreening Event
Watch and learn as local artists, Tinsel Arcade, lead a hands-on silkscreen event, and share some of their tips and trick for leveling up your look.
With the expert guidance of the Tinsel Arcade team, our guests will have the opportunity to adorn their clothing onsite. Tinsel Arcade create exquisitely unique garments for $1000+. There will be opportunities to purchase more adornment and work with them on your pieces beyond the free silkscreening onsite.
Where: The Box Shop – SF’s last industrial arts makerspace
When: Sunday, June 8 from 12-4pm

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!
