A spokesperson for the gallery said: "Visit us for a day of fun and thought-provoking events exploring sustainable fashion.
"The line-up of talks, workshops, makers, clothes swap, and more invite you to question the cycle of our clothing and explore ideas for positive change."
People are encouraged to bring their pre-loved clothes to the gallery prior to the event to give them a new lease of life.
The swap is part of the gallery's Community Takeover Programme which runs from April 1 to 23.
Southampton Clothes Swap is a monthly event in spaces across the city where people can bring clothes they no longer want and swap them for items they do.
No ticket is required for the event, but ticket holders receive a free raffle ticket.
