DUNMORE, Pa. — This weekend, sustainability and style are coming together in the Electric City area with the return of the Scranton Swap, a beloved community event that encourages eco-friendly fashion and local connection. On Saturday, May 3, from noon to 4 p.m., the Dunmore Community Center will host the spring edition of this popular clothing exchange.
Organized with simplicity and community spirit in mind, Scranton Swap gives attendees a chance to refresh their wardrobes—without spending a dime or contributing to fast fashion waste. The rules are straightforward and accessible to all:
- Bring up to 10 clean, gently used, or new clothing items or accessories.
- Upon check-in, you’ll receive 1 ticket per item.
- Use those tickets to “shop” from a wide variety of donated apparel displayed on racks and tables.
- Exchange your tickets for your selected items at checkout.
- Stick around to browse offerings from local vendors, adding to the festive, market-style atmosphere.
It’s a swap, not a sale—encouraging people to view clothing through the lens of reuse and community sharing. For many, it’s not just about finding a great jacket or a stylish pair of jeans; it's about taking a step toward more sustainable living.
Whether you’re a fashion enthusiast looking for a wardrobe refresh, an eco-conscious citizen reducing textile waste, or simply someone who loves a good community event, Scranton Swap offers something for everyone.
Mark your calendars for May 3 and join the movement—where fashion meets sustainability, and neighbors help neighbors look and feel great.
