To make Maritxu Kajoin sustainable and elegant, Emmaus will set up a second-hand market in Arrasate
The second-hand market will be open at the Foundation's headquarters in Arrasate today, September 12, from 17:00 to 20:00, and Saturday, September 20, from 10:30 to 13:30.
This year's Maritxu Kajoi party will be held on October 3 and the streets of Arrasate will once again be filled with elegance.
On the occasion of this day, in view of the fact that in recent years the use of fast fashion clothing purchased for a single day is becoming widespread, the Emaus Social Foundation and the Arrasate City Council want to encourage citizens to live in their own style, authenticity and environmental awareness Maritxu Kajoi , for which they have launched a double initiative with the sponsorship of the Diputación Foral de Gipuzkoa.
According to Emmaus, "the action stems from a shared reflection that excessive clothing consumption, often acquired for a single day, makes textiles one of the most polluting industries. In the face of this model of wear and boot, the Emmaus Social Foundation wants to show that reuse and circularity are also possible in popular celebrations."
The second ski market will be open at the Foundation's headquarters in Arrasate (Bidekurtseta Street, 2), today September 12 from 17:00 to 20:00 and Saturday, September 20 from 10:30 to 13:30.
As they have advanced, the warehouse has been filled and there will be an opportunity to find all kinds of clothing, footwear and accessories for the day of the Maritxu Drawers.
In addition, a personalized styling workshop will be offered, led by professional stylist Maialen Uranga, and in individual sessions each person will be helped to find a dress that reflects their personal style well.
The initiative has been subsidised by the Arrasate City Council as part of the call for grants to promote local trade in commercial and service establishments.
