Moving The Needle: Care and Repair Cafe

Join us this semester at the Repair Café(s), a welcoming space to mend and restore your favorite items while promoting the sustainability of your wardrobe. Whether you have a favorite sweater with a hole in the elbow, a jacket with a broken zipper, or jeans that need patching, the Repair Café is the place to give them a second life. Instead of throwing clothing away, learn practical skills that help you keep what you love in circulation longer and reduce textile waste. No experience is necessary. Our volunteers will walk you through each repair step by step, so you’ll leave with a mended item and new skills you can use again and again.
