Diane Alleycats invites you to join her in attending another great event at Danelle Plaza:

Blended Threads is a community clothing swap where you can purchase a tote bag and fill it up for only $10. The goal is sustainability instead of consumerism. Any leftover clothes are donated to Forsaken Apparel who hit the Phoenix streets every Tuesday with their outreach team. There will be thrifting, tattoos, vendors, live art, musicians, a fashion show, food vendors, and an open-mic competition. Visit the link to purchase a donation-based ticket, anywhere from $0 to $10.
