About this Event
Be a part of history, while fixing your clothes! We are gathering the most menders in one place at one time ever, and we are doing it while sailing round the iconic sights of NYC. We have the best menders from this town and beyond teaching workshops: join one of their hosted tables, or just bring your holey clothes and mend. Food, drink, and beautiful supplies are included. Join in the world’s first and also biggest mendathon! (Guinness World Record status pending)
