Darning is a simple mending technique used to repair holes in fabric by weaving new threads into the worn area, making your clothes, blankets, or accessories last longer!
Join our workshop to learn how to stitch up your favorite socks, sweaters, and more!

; & sewing circles are a natural site of political organizing. While this doesn’t mean that most makers are explicitly producing resistance objects or engaged in direct action when they craft, it by nature contains the seeds of collective resistance. In addition to building skills this workshop aims to educate and engage the growing mending community about the importance of mending for system change. From analyzing history, exploring techniques, understanding its matriarchal lineage, and more, we aim to support our community members to make and trust your own choices for positive change.

: We have thoughtfully scheduled each event throughout the month and quarter to complement one another, ensuring they work together to build community, expand knowledge, and develop skills. Workshops take place on the first Monday of each month (unless otherwise noted). Craft nights and or Makers Show & Tell occur the following Tuesday (second Tuesday of each month) providing a space for those who attended workshops or not to work on or show off their handcraft projects with our community. Twice during the quarter, we host one panel and one book club discussion on the Third Wednesday of the month.
