Mending 101: How to give your clothing new life

Join us during Sustain|Ability for Mending 101, a free workshop in the Hall of Architecture where you will learn how to sew up tears, sew on a button, and fix damaged areas. Bring clothes from your own wardrobe or learn how to fix items you found at the swap! There are two workshops, one at 12:30 p.m. and one at 1:45 p.m.; both sessions will be the same—please only register for one. Space is limited in each workshop; registration is required, complete the form below to reserve your spot!
