I♡Youth2 is excited to announce our first workshop with an artist in residence at ILY2 Too (ILY2’s artist residency space in the Lloyd Center Mall)!
Visible mending is an ornamental approach to repair that highlights and celebrates imperfections and mending, rather than trying to hide it.
In Visible Mending, youth will work with Martha Daghlian, to learn various sewing, stitching, and weaving techniques to mend textiles. Participants are welcome to bring in a clothing item they may like to repair, or use any of the awesome fabric options in our studio to learn and practice! As part of the workshop, we will be collaboratively transforming I♡Youth2’s sad grey couch into a joyful work of mended + altered art!
All materials provided!
This workshop is recommended for young folks aged 10-15, but is open to any young person who may be a good fit. Please note that participants will be handling sewing needles.
