You could add ceiling fans- change direction so they blow up and they'll circulate that heat back down for you.
If you just want a clothing rack solution, this unit on Amazon might fit the bill:

I've got one of these Sheila Maids and they're brilliant (but they're a lot cheaper here in the UK as they are made here!)

Jacqueline, If you have celling fans use them to dry your clothes. Counter clockwise will bring the air from the ceiling down. Aloha!
thank you all, very useful
