Event description

Mending worn clothes as an act of political resistance and community repair.

CCA@CCA Student Fellow Elisabeth Cobb Hughes invites the CCA Community to bring worn clothing to the Novack Gallery to be mended for free.

Elisabeth will mend these items within the gallery space each Friday from 11am to 4pm through the beginning of March. Stop by during these hours to drop off your garment, learn mending techniques, and chat about the current state of affairs and what the CCA community can do to enact change.

Garments may also be dropped off at the Novack Gallery on Wednesdays from 11am to 7pm, and Thursdays from 11am to 4pm. Please note that the Novack Gallery is closed for installation the week of February 17.

In return for mending your piece of clothing, Elisabeth asks that you write to her about how you can mend climate, government, community, relationships, or the self.
