About this Event
Come join us for another introduction to sewing machines workshop at Place LB! Learn how to thread and operate a domestic sewing machine, learn a few troubleshooting tricks, and sew your own reversible handkerchief! Sewing machines will be provided!
We’re so excited to be back at Place LB!
This special no-cost mending workshop is being offered in partnership with the Neighbor-to-Neighbor program and the City of Long Beach Office of Climate Action and Sustainability.
Through teaching, Radical Sewist envisions a sewing community for BIPOC, queer, and trans people. We see sewing not only as an individual’s way to reject capitalism, but as a collective’s tool to manifest liberation. We denounce fashion as much as we denounce fascism; we aspire to connection as much as we aspire to creation. Community is our heart–and to us, that means holding space for the interweaving of disability, race, culture, queerness, and neurodivergence. We aim to be a nurturing, co-created place: a space where self-care is a priority and all abilities are welcome. Won’t you join us, comrade?
