The BOOtique will collect new/gently used Halloween costumes in September and then in October will run a free "shop" for people to shop for donated costumes. Many Halloween costumes are not biodegradable and the masks and accessories used are often made out of non-recyclable plastic. Halloween costumes are often only used once and then thrown away ending up in landfills. It is estimated that 35 million costumes are thrown away each year and leads to almost 2,000 tons of plastic waste. Not only will the BOOtique help to start to tackle this environmental issue in our community, but it will also allow people who cannot afford a costume access to free costumes. BOOtique wants to ensure that all children in our community have access to costumes.

Stemming from the roots of West Africa, where the body is the instrument and storytelling is a normal part of life, in the bones of children of the diaspora. A mix of footsteps, claps and spoken word produce complex rhythms in this modern expressive art form. In the Americas, the art of stepping was carefully crafted by the descendants of slaves. In the early 1900s across historically black colleges, stepping took hold of the African American community. Today, from historically black fraternities and sororities to non-profit organizations, stepping is one of the most complex and historically significant forms of dance and storytelling in the Black community.
