Join us for the first Mend & Make Circle on Saturday, July 11 from 1-3 PM at Broome County Arts Council's Artisan Gallery.
A relaxed, creative gathering for anyone interested in giving beloved clothing and textiles a second life. Whether you’re patching a worn sleeve, repairing a favorite pair of jeans, exploring visible mending, or experimenting with decorative techniques like Sashiko and Boro, this is a welcoming space to stitch, learn, share ideas and be inspired.
Bring your own clothing or textile project along with any supplies you have. Some participants may share tools, fabric scraps, threads, techniques and ENCOURAGEMENT. Beginners and experienced makers are welcome!
We’ll meet once or twice monthly to slow down, create together and celebrate the beauty of repair, resourcefulness and well-loved things. This first meetup will be at BCAC (223 State Street). Free and open to all!
