On the Mend: Why Using What You Have is the New Luxury! at Custom Collaborative
Join us in person for an interactive and eye-opening Earth Day event all about making the most of what you've got, and go home with a free mending kit!

Hear from two women working to build stronger systems in the sustainable fashion industry, Custom Collaborative CEO Ngozi Okaro and mending pioneer and author Kate Sekules, as they chat about what it means to build a fashion practice around care rather than consumption.

Following the conversation, Kate will host a hands-on workshop to put these principles into practice, guiding you through visible mending basics from her book "Mend! A Refashioning Manual and Manifesto," which we will raffle off at the end of the night! All materials are included with your ticket!

Don't miss this chance to learn from sustainability experts, get hands-on with visible mending, and walk away with a free mending kit and skills you'll reach for all year long.
