Opera Santa Barbara is hosting “The Ultimate Halloween Swap,” a free event at its State Street office where residents can exchange gently used Halloween costumes and accessories. The event is intended to help reduce the financial burden and environmental waste associated with the holiday.
The swap offers residents a way to pass along costumes and accessories they have already used and exchange them for other items. The summary provided does not specify how many items each person may bring or take, whether participants need to register, or what condition requirements apply beyond the description of items as gently used.
Details about the event’s date and hours were not provided. The exact address of Opera Santa Barbara’s State Street office was also not included. The available information does not say whether the event is open to all residents or whether any age or other participation limits apply.
