Workshops
Together, we can make a difference, so we’ve partnered with our friends at think outside London to create a set of hands-on workshops, to help us all connect to our wardrobes, find our personal style and open up the conversation around sustainable fashion . Join us in exploring and creating, learning along the way!
We’re based in Bristol, scroll down to find out more.
Reweaving Stories
This gathering invites participants to explore the personal and collective narratives woven into our wardrobes. Through conversation and hands-on needlework, we will reflect on our relationships with clothing, uncover forgotten stories, and reimagine our connections to the textiles we wear every day. By learning simple repair and embellishment techniques, we will not only revive essential skills but also rekindle a more mindful and intimate bond with our clothing.
The clothes we wear tell our stories: who we are, who we want to be, and what we belong to. Historically, these stories were deeply rooted in place, shaped by local textile traditions and passed down through generations. Yet, as clothing production has become distant and industrialised, many of us have lost the skills to care for and connect with our garments.
The workshop will start with a tour of the gallery, followed by an activity exploring our identity through our wardorbe. You’ll learn simple mending techniques to repair and personalise your clothes. No experience needed—materials and guidance will be provided!
Please bring an item to repair!
Free event- donations encouraged, they mean we can run more events like this in the future!
