Mending Party presented by BIYA BIYA Productions at Eli Tea Bar

Ripped your favorite top? Thick thighs wearing out your jeans? Join BIYA BIYA at Eli Tea Bar for a Mending Party! Bring your clothes that need a little love to learn how to mend them! Extending the life of our clothes keeps them out of the 92 million tons of annual textile waste produced globally.

We will go through a brief overview of mending history and discuss different mending techniques. The rest of the time will be an opportunity for you to work on your project with the help of the facilitator and tutorial resources.

Some things you can bring to mend are:
Jeans, sweaters, socks, tights, t-shirts, tote bags, etc.

All levels are welcome! Supplies will be provided, but feel free to bring your own (i.e. needle, thread, scissors, yarn, fabrics). And definitely bring your item to mend!

Sliding scale tickets $15 – $20.
