Winter Rituals: New & Old Winter Gear Clothing Swap

January 17, 2026 @ 1:00 pm - 2:30 pm

Fergus Falls Public Library

Gather with community to swap winter gear and practice enjoying winter. We will ground ourselves in what this season provides and discuss how to dress warm so we can enjoy the beauty of winter. There is no such thing as bad weather, just inadequate clothing! Bring good-quality winter gear: mittens, socks, boots, coats, etc. No holes, tears or broken zippers please. You do not need to bring items to take items home.

This activity is part of Springboard for the Arts’ Winter Rituals: New & Old programming. To learn more about Springboard for the Arts, visit springboardforthearts.org. This activity is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through a grant from the Minnesota State Arts Board, thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts and cultural heritage fund.
