17/04/2024 23:00 - 19/04/2024 01:00Join us for a Mend In Public Event at our shop on Seminary Ave. The idea is simple: get out into your local community and stitch in protest against disposable fashion. We will repair our torn pockets and broken seams and spark conversations on making Loved Clothes Last.
Mend in Public Day stands as a beacon of change in a world inundated with fashion waste. By participating, you would be part of a global creative action resisting the cycle of excess through repair and reuse.
Be mindful this is NOT a workshop. It’s a self-guided experience to practice your mending skills. All skill levels and Fashion Revolutionaries welcome. We encourage you to share what you know with other attendees.
We’ll have supplies available for your use. Scissors, buttons, threads, needles, fabric scraps, even sewing machines if you dare. Sign up for one or both slots, and get your repair pile (or other fiber crafts!) ready!
