AMP: Artists' Meeting Place and Resource Collective

I'm collecting 3000 pieces of clothing for an installation, "Long Beach Garment Manifestation," in Long Beach.
All clothes will remain intact and be photographed for an online catalog and limited edition artist's book.
At the end of the exhibition there will be a dismantling party where viewers are invited to take clothes home. Remaining garments will be donated to the Women Shelter of Long Beach.
Clothing Pick-up is available.
More formal details below.
