What's a Mend-It Cafe you ask? It's a community organized and run event where you can get your clothes and other textile goods repaired or repurposed. It's also a way to grow a repair economy, divert textile waste from landfill and join communities around the globe engaged in reuse and repair over replace.
Here's how these events typically will work:
Bring an article of clothing to be repaired
Check in and get paired with a mender
Watch as your mender brings new life to your garment.
Below is a list of the things we can fix.
1. Fallen Hems
2. Broken Zippers
3. Torn Garments
4. Simple Alterations
5. Sock Darning
