Friday nights in September, our whole little complex will be open late. Rather than closing at 6 as we usually do, Treasure City will be open till 9, and Yellowbike will have shop hours from 6-9. There will also be a movie in the parking lot each week starting at dark (around 9pm), so plan on spending your Fridays with us for shopping, mechanics, and entertainment all in one convenient location.
Sure, any store will give you a plastic shopping bag to add to the islands of trash at sea, but on free bag days, we’ll give you a purse, shoulder bag, or even suitcase of your choice with the purchase of any 3 items. A few extremely valuable bags may be excluded from this offer.
Monkeywrench Books presents a movie with discussion afterward:
Argentina: Hope in Hard Times gives us a broader picture of what the New Politics and the New Economics looked like in Argentina during the economic collapse. Dworkin and Young show us not only workers running abandoned factories, but also unemployed workers building new communities on the outskirts of town, garbage-sifting cartoneros (cardboard recyclers) forming organizational alliances with the middle class, and unemployed urban professionals creating their own barter economy. The film also weaves in the historical importance of the “change of heart” that followed the Argentinazo, when people woke up, at least momentarily, from the fear and divisions that had been instilled in them during the military dictatorship, and looked to each other for solidarity and support.

Women’s pants are normally priced lower than any other thrift store in town at $4/pair. But because we’ve got more really nice quality jeans and pants right now than we can fit on the racks, we’ll give you three pairs for $4. Time to stock up for fall, huh?

Dave Chappelle’s Block Party “The uncensored, unforgettable and unbelievably hilarious full-length movie about throwing the ultimate block party.”
Sure, any store will give you a plastic shopping bag to add to the islands of trash at sea, but on free bag days, we’ll give you a purse, shoulder bag, or even suitcase of your choice with the purchase of any 3 items. A few extremely valuable bags may be excluded from this offer.
The annual Recycled Fashion Show was created by Treasure City Thrift Store, a local volunteer-run nonprofit that raises funds for grassroots community groups, as a way to promote the creative reuse of old materials.
Local clothing and accessory designers have been encouraged to hunt for materials and inspiration at Treasure City for their collections . Participating designers were given bags to fill up with items from the store for free in exchange for putting at least one piece from their collections in a silent auction after the fashion show.
The fashion show is free and will be preceded by pre-show performances, including dances by Texas Roller Derby jeerleaders The Bomb Squad.
The show is followed immediately by an after party benefit at the Victory Grill (1104 E. 11th Street). The benefit will feature a silent auction of some pieces from the fashion show and musical entertainment by local acts, Blacklisted Individuals, Damp Heat, Sunset, and The Always Already. There is a $5 suggested donation. Proceeds benefit Treasure City Thrift Store.
The fashion show and benefit are collaborations with iLoveMikeLitt which also produced last year's show and benefit.
Start a new good habit. Visit Treasure City and Yellow Bike on Friday evenings for bike repair, late night thrift shopping and free movies. There's plenty of bike parking, you can BYOB after 9pm and there will be DJ's spinning.
Yellow Bike and Treasure City open until 9pm / Movie Start at 9pm
Kicking It (2008)
In the summer of 2006, while the football world's attention was focused on Germany, thousands of players around the globe were training hard and competing to be part of another world cup...The Homeless World Cup. It began in 2001 as a wild idea to give homeless people a chance to change their lives through an international street soccer competition. Five years later, the annual Homeless World Cup was an internationally recognized sports competition. 500 homeless players from 48 nations would ultimately be selected to represent their country in Cape Town, South Africa—coming from such disparate parts of the world as war torn Afghanistan, the slums of Kenya, the drug rehab clinics of Dublin, Ireland, and the the streets of Charlotte, North Carolina
