About Us
Since its founding in 1885, The Woman's Exchange of Memphis has been an integral part of the community, and today we are proud to continue our longstanding tradition of "helping others help themselves" by showcasing and selling the handiwork of hundreds of consignors and employing highly skilled seamstresses to create our signature infant and children's clothing.
Through our commitment to empowering women, we offer a unique avenue for seamstresses, crafters, artisans, and consignors to provide for themselves and their families. We believe that everyone should have the opportunity to earn a decent living, and we are honored to support our local community by providing a retail environment where they can showcase and sell their handiwork.
As we look to the future, we remain dedicated to our mission and our community. Join us as we continue to make a difference through one of Memphis' longest-running non-profits. For more information on our organization or to learn how you can support our mission, please contact us by phone or email.
