The Sewing Machine Project will host a tour of the mending services available through their initiative, The Mending Project. Learn about the day in the life of the menders and the impact their work has on the community. Volunteer menders and coordinators, as well as their library partners, will share the history of the program and stories of their experience.
Explore mending across Madison through a series of events - Mending: Community Repair in Madison - hosted in partnership by Madison Public Library, The Mending Project, the James Watrous Gallery, and Center for Design and Material Culture at UW-Madison's School of Human Ecology.
