Fragrance-free cotton shirts (Ann Arbor Northwest Side)
First-come-first-serve for any cut-out screenprints alone; priority to those who need fragrance-free/nontoxic for full T-shirts. All of them have 100% cotton fabric, but screenprints, tags, and maybe thread unfortunately aren’t ultimately compostable. If anyone wants just the screenprinted part(s), I can cut those out whatever size/shape you’d like! Or take entire T-shirt(s). More details available about any of them, including nontoxic info. - 1 blue tie-dye T-shirt, with screenprint of the moon-phases - 2 union T-shirts: 1 orange, with screenprint of this area’s BAC (Bricklayers and Allied Craftsworkers) Local 9; and 1 red (union-made), with screenprint of Chicago Teachers’ Union - 1 brown T-shirt with “Prevent Wildfires” screenprint - 1 beige kid’s T-shirt with screenprint of wild animals and “Celebrate Earth Day” - 1 white T-shirt with screenprint of Growing Allies (a past local anti-oppression event) logo & motto on front and Martin Luther King, Jr. on back - 1 gray-and-white-striped T-shirt with screenprint of band Aye Nako with goofy/racy gay art - 2 old worn T-shirts from Comstock (music festival of local Community High School): 1 orange from 2003 with screenprint of fortune cookie; and 1 golden-yellow from 2004 with screenprint of rising sun (Separately, have polyester/cotton-blend shirts available for those who want something to work in while using messy non-compostable materials, like most paints.)

Nontoxic cotton/polyester shirts (Ann Arbor Northwest Side)
Any or all of these 3 shirts are free to anyone, with priority to those who need fragrance-free/nontoxic. (Note end for related info.) You can wear them as intended, make them into bags, use them for other projects. The photos make them look more hopelessly wrinkled than they are, and the green shirt looks more blue, but hopefully this can give a rough idea! They are all labeled “Adult small” but the T-shirts especially have fit larger. Contactless porch pick-up. Please indicate day and 30-minute time range (preferably July 2-6) that you could collect in. - 1 beige-and-light-blue three-quarter-length-sleeve shirt with picture of pandas under a rainbow that says underneath and on one sleeve “Washington, D.C.” ~50 years old, very soft and thin, 50% cotton/50% polyester. - 1 forest-green (not blue-green like it appears in the photo) T-shirt with white screen-printed design of a human holding a crescent moon that says underneath “Take Back the Night, Ann Arbor, 2005” (Take Back the Night is a traditional anti-rape event.) ~20 years old, relatively sturdy, 50% cotton/50% polyester. - 1 “heather”/“brindle” gray T-shirt with red-with-blue-accents screen-printed design of all-gender symbol that says inside “Transgender Michigan”. (This is both the name of an organization and indicates general support for the transgender population here.) ~15 years old (screen-printed on used shirt), soft and thin with a several small tears, 90% cotton/10% polyester. Since they’re cotton/polyester blends, unfortunately they are neither compostable nor recyclable, as is also true for any screen-printed clothes. Getting used items is still more eco-friendly than any new, but for those wanting to avoid microplastic pollution that comes from synthetic fabrics (like polyester, nylon, spandex, etc.), they can be gently hand-washed and line-dried, and/or worn over other clothes to require less washing. Wrinkles can be removed even without washing by hanging in a steamy room or spraying with diluted vinegar, or by ironing on a low-to-medium setting with any screen-printing folded inside. Only washed in hypoallergenic nontoxic eco-friendly soap/detergent, without dryer sheets, for decades. Kept free from contamination by fragrance and smoking/vaping, in a home that has long followed nontoxic practices and is completely synthetic-fragrance-free, and has not adopted new cats or dogs since the last nonhuman resident about six years ago. Please feel free to reach out with questions!
