Participants are encouraged to bring a beloved article from their wardrobe that they would like to explore how to best care for, whether it be that favorite cozy sweater, best pair of yoga pants, hardworking leather handbag or whatever else most resonates. Reed will offer inspiration from her own collection of carefully groomed and visibly mended items and share the techniques and tools used in her craft, including her personal stash of cashmere and vintage laces and notions, for all to experiment and play with! Workshop fee is $45. Space is limited. Refreshments and nibbles will be provided. About Reed of The Sustainable Garment: Visual artist-turned-textile enthusiast and pioneer <a href="https://www.thesustainablegarment.com/the-calling" title="https://www.thesustainablegarment.com/the-calling" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Reed McLaren’s</a> deep affection for natural materials led her to uncover the lost arts of garment grooming and sustainable clothing care. Through research of historical tools and techniques with hands-on experimentation, and the documentation of various travels and encounters in the field, she explores all aspects of how these once necessary practices can guide us toward a more sustainable modern age.
