The Day of the Reuse in Como

The Day of the Reuse is scheduled Sunday, 6th November, from 10:00 until 18:00, in Como: four barter stands, a lot of workshops and a shared picnic.

The Day of the Reuse is an event by The isola che c’è that was born in 2014 with the aim of giving new life to objects that are no longer in use. It is a day to swap clothes, accessories, books, comics, dvds, cds, household objects, seeds, toys and other small objects still in good state and to allow goods that are probably destined to be thrown out to be transformed into something useful for somebody else.

The event is open and free for everybody and it offers a lot of activities (here is the board)
