Repair Remix & Rewear Events | May 19 - May 25

Weekly roundup of NYC-based events & resources for repairing, remixing / upcycling, and rewearing your clothes!

Happy Monday everyone - just got back from a lovely (if rainy) weekend in Montreal for a good friend’s bachelorette. If you’re there anytime soon I recommend touring / exploring the city’s fantastic street art & murals. Other highlights include Foxy, lilac season, and multiple @brendahashtag sightings (iykyk).

R.e. events this week, you’ll see I’ve made some tweaks to the format below - would love any & all feedback about what you find great (and not so great) about this weekly roundup!
