Repair Remix & Rewear Events | June 2 - June 8
Weekly roundup of NYC-based events & resources for repairing, remixing / upcycling, and rewearing your clothes!
While I generally keep this newsletter focused on “hands-on” workshops / events for mending & upcycling your clothes, I also wanted to share a great roundup of Fashion Tech events this week - all part of broader NY Tech Week taking over the city from 6/2-8. There are a couple of circularity & sustainability themed events in particular that I’m planning to attend - hope to catch some of you there ;)
