2021 - 2022

Space Swap started as a community clothing swap in the Eau Gallie Arts District (EGAD).

This clothing swap grew into multiple festivals accompanied by local musicians and artists. The deeper purpose of these swap events was to raise awareness, funds, and donate clothing to local nonprofits.

Space Swap fundraised with organizations like Kids Dig Gardening.

We collaborated with other local nonprofits, such as WAYS for Life, Community of Hope, and New Life Mission—giving clothing to families in need.

New Visions Full-Service Nursery in EGAD, Banana River Yard in Satellite Beach, and Rockledge Gardens graciously hosted these swaps.

Space Swap acquired 501(c)(3) non-profit status, allowing our mission to continue.

2023 - 2024

We cultivated a safe space and culture at our brick and mortar, Space Swap Shop, that ran from April 1st, 2023 through January 8th, 2024. It was a community space and venue for artists to collaborate, incubate, and grow.

Space Swap Shop hosted Wellness Wednesdays making mental health resources more accessible to our community. We also hosted music & art shows, community crafting events, and sewing classes.

We collected textile and clothing donations in partnership with American Textile Recycling Services based in Orlando, Florida. Doing so, we saved over 5,000 pounds of textiles from going to the landfill.

As a completely grassroots start-up, we've sustained our mission through fundraising, sponsorships, and collaborations with the community.

Through our in-house event production, we have provided unique opportunities for artists of all mediums to come together and for the community to enjoy.

Back to our grass roots.

We have the opportunity to deepen our impact in the community by collaborating with other like-minded communities, businesses, and artists.

We are doing this through outreach, pop-ups, festivals, collaborative workshops, focusing on sustainability education, and providing resources for other topics that pique the curiosity of our community.

We will always create a safe space for artists to thrive.

We are excited to see where our collaborations and community take our mission. We are grateful to have such an amazing community!

We have plans to “take our show on the road” aka go on tour!

Expect to see Space Swap across Brevard and beyond in 2025! We are working on local, national, and international collaborations.

We plan to use our social media platform to connect with like minds all over the world. We can learn from one another and deepen our mission.

It makes sense that an organization created by nomadic artists couldn’t be contained in one place…
