Buying fewer clothes and maintaining what you have is the best way to reduce your environmental impact. Visible mending not only promotes sustainability but also fosters creativity, saves money, and builds community. This September, stop by the Brookline Village Library to see examples of locally mended textiles and learn about their history.

This exhibit is brought to you by local menders and Mariko Sugimori of Zoe & Mona Mending. Stay tuned for a visible mending workshop at the library December 10!
