Step into a celebration of sustainability, creativity, and community action — all woven together in a full-day festival designed to inspire, connect, and empower. It is not just a date on the calendar, but a movement rooted in conscious living, creativity, and community. Whether you’re a seasoned thrift shopper or just discovering the magic of “twice-loved” treasures, Thrift Day is a chance to rethink the way we consume and appreciate the stories behind the things we own.

What Is Thrift Day?

Thrift Day was created to spotlight the value of secondhand shopping and sustainable living. It encourages people to buy used instead of new—to reduce waste, support local thrift stores, and embrace the beauty of reusing, repurposing, and recycling.

On Thrift Day, communities across the country host swap meets, donation drives, clothing sales, and fashion shows featuring vintage and upcycled looks. But it’s not just about clothes—you’ll find handmade items, books, toys, home goods, and unique finds that spark creativity and nostalgia.

👗 Eco-Fashion & Clothing Swap

Give your gently used clothes a second life and discover your next favorite outfit from local closets — stylish, sustainable, and budget-friendly.

🎨 Local Art & Handmade Goods

Browse beautifully made artwork, accessories, and jewelry crafted by local artists and makers — perfect for meaningful, low-impact gifting.

Why Thrift?

Eco-Friendly Living: The fashion industry is one of the world’s largest polluters. Thrifting extends the life of garments and diverts items from landfills.
Affordable Style: Looking good doesn’t have to cost a fortune. Thrift stores offer quality clothing at a fraction of the price.
One-of-a-Kind Finds: From retro denim jackets to quirky mugs, thrifting is like a treasure hunt—you never know what gem you’ll discover.

🧵Thrift Day in Our Community

At United Hub, we believe that fashion, fun, and sustainability go hand in hand. That’s why we’re thrilled to host our own Thrift Day celebration with local vendors, workshops, and family-friendly activities. It’s a space to connect, trade, learn, and give your wardrobe a refresh—without costing the Earth.

So whether you’re a vintage lover, a green-minded parent, or just in it for the good deals, Thrift Day is a reminder that small choices can make a big difference.

You will find Live Sewing & Upcycling Demos. Come and watch local sewists in action or get inspired to repair and reinvent your own clothes on the spot.
