Visible Mending with Lisa Kappe

Join a workshop on 'visible mending' – the art of repairing and adorning your clothes using classic embroidery and patching techniques. Arts facilitator Lisa Kappe, who has specialized in textile craftsmanship and sustainable clothing repair since 2019, shares her knowledge on how you can breathe new life into worn pieces through creativity and handwork.

For Kappe, repair is far more than simply fixing holes – it is a way to create new stories in the clothes you already own and to rebuild a relationship with your belongings. You'll receive hands-on instruction and have the opportunity to try the techniques yourself. Remember to bring a piece of clothing you'd like to work on – anything from a sweater with a hole to jeans that could use some artistic enhancement.
