Both workshops are free!
Spots are limited, and pre-registration is required. More information can be found at the bottom of the page.
"Visible Mending - Signature" with Waxiu Shehu
Waxiu teaches participants "visible mending" using his own signature technique - a way to repair clothes where the mending is intentionally displayed and becomes part of the garment's aesthetics. Bring a piece of clothing that needs mending, has a stain, or that you simply want to practice on!
- When? 12:PM and 4PM
- Workshop duration: 1 hour
- Max participants: 5
- Required skills: Participants should have basic sewing machine skills.

Using the linocut technique, we will create our own stamps that will be used for printing on textiles. Bring your own garment or fabric to print on, or use the test fabric provided on-site!
- When? 1.30 PM
- Workshop duration: 2 hours
- Max participants: 8
- Prerequisites: None – open to all!
