Description
As part of Scotland’s Mental Health Arts Festival 2025, ReMode presents: The Repair Retreat on Saturday 8th November 11-2pm .
Join us at ReMode’s studio for a calming, hands-on Repair Retreat! A relaxing space to slow down, reconnect, and breathe new life into your clothes. Through mindful mending, we invite you to reflect, repair, and restore — both garments and your own sense of wellbeing. Bring along your old, loved clothes and learn simple repair techniques in a welcoming, creative environment. Leave with a renewed piece of clothing, a lighter mind, and a deeper appreciation for the stories our clothes carry.
All ages welcome!
