High Hopes Feminine Power for Change in de W70 Club

During the Dutch Sustainable Fashion Week, The Swapshop organizes an inspiring event. On October 11, from 6:30 PM to 9:00 PM, you are very welcome at High Hopes: Feminine Power for Change in the W70 Club (Weena 70, above The Swapshop in Rotterdam).

Female power for change

Monique Drent, one of the organizers, says: “We have put together a programme full of fun and inspiration. We answer questions such as: what are the best and most powerful tools for change? And how can we use it to make ourselves and the world around us more beautiful and balanced? And yes, female power plays a big role in that, but this is certainly not a ladies-only event.”

Programme

The evening programme is full of highlights, including the screening of the mini-documentary High Hopes and inspiring talks by, among others, Odair Peirera, the new Fashion Mayor of Rotterdam, and changemaker Serife Dikbas.

In addition, the new collection of Fabulous Fungi's x The Swapshop will be launched, and you can participate in the Confident Fashion Choices workshop. While DJ Veinteunas provides soulful vibes, you can participate in a free clothing swap organized by The Swapshop.

In short, it promises to be a festive evening in which change is central. Come by, be inspired and contribute to a more sustainable fashion world!
