—————————————————————————–
Pipsqueak and its bathrooms are wheelchair accessible. The space is not scent free, but we encourage attendees to not wear scents or smoke before entering. Though we highly encourage clean donations, we can not guarantee the clothing to be scent/chemical free. Please contact us with any questions or concerns.

The Seattle Queer and Trans Clothing Exchange is a biannual event open to all members of the LGBTQ community. We aim to provide a safe, welcoming environment to get gently used clothing at no cost.
While there are current Trans clothing exchanges, the reach of their collection efforts can be very limited. It can be especially difficult to bring in a wide range of sizes and styles with a small donation pool.
Any leftover items from the exchange will be stored for future events or disseminated amongst pre-existing groups and local LGBTQ-serving shelters that collect clothing for their clients. All money raised will be used to ensure the continuation of the event, with any extra being directed to organizations working with the Seattle Trans community.
