Bilingual Mending Workshop Series

Please join us for a free four-part mending workshop series, led by BSU Associate Professor Astri Snodgrass. Spanish language interpretation services will be provided. Come to any or all 4 part series events. We'll talk about how and why we mend. What would it look like for you to change your relationship to your wardrobe? How could your wardrobe be more sustainable? We'll look at the history and practice of mending and practice hands on techniques. Each session will include a demonstration of one technique followed by guided practice and group discussion. Bring something to mend! 

Nonstretchy or woven fabrics work best for the first two sessions, and stretchy or knits for the second two. Small holes, less than half an inch in diameter, are best for beginners.

This workshop is free and open to the public, sponsored by The City of Boise and Boise City Department of Arts & History. Materials will be provided. Registration encouraged.
