Mending and Clothing Alterations Workshop Series

A practical, beginner-friendly workshop series focused on keeping your wardrobe in rotation rather than sending it to the donation pile. Participants bring garments from home and learn hands-on skills like hemming, taking in clothing for a better fit, and repairing damaged areas. The series meets Saturday, November 28, from noon to 2 PM at the Douglass branch in North Lawndale. Registration is required, and the workshops are designed so that even first-time menders can leave feeling confident making basic repairs on their own.
