Repair Remix & Rewear Events | May 26 - June 1

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

Hope you all are enjoying this holiday weekend! Despite the meh weather here in NYC, I spent a relaxed couple of days at the Jersey Shore with friends - we took advantage of seasonal local strawberries and rhubarb to bake a pie, the lattice testing my ‘weaving’ skills… I also started reading up on Glasgow, in anticipation of an upcoming trip - if you have any recs please send them my way!
