Are you tired of fast fashion but don't know how to make the most of the clothes already in your closet? Or perhaps you found a rare vintage gem while thrifting, but it's missing a couple of buttons and you're afraid to attempt a repair? Join Actors Theatre Costume Shop Supervisor Anna Jenny, Props Supervisor Katelin Ashcraft, and Production Technician Jessica Hughes to learn how to sew a button, create a travel sewing kit, and mend an item with a decorative patch. Drop in for one tutorial, or hang out for the full afternoon and experience all three. All necessary supplies provided on site, but participants are welcome to bring personal projects and receive support.

Sunday, May 11 - Session To Be Announced Soon!
2:30 p.m. - 4:30 p.m. at the Louisville Tool Library
