There are a variety of ways to sew on a button, so grab an item from home that needs fixing and pop in July 7 for some mending magic. It's time to re-style, re-dazzle, &/or mend those buttoned clothes that need some simple, hands-on love. And, we'll have plenty of fabric, needles and buttons on-hand in case you'd prefer to come learn and practice on ours instead. Free to the public and open to all ages!
