Buy nothing new when you can fix and beautify old!
In the fixing workshop on 25th of November from 13 to 16 you can see and try different repair techniques, e.g. for repairing and reusing knitwear, textiles and bicycle inner tubes. Workshop guides: Veera Jussila from Käsityökekkerit, craft activist Niko Lindgren/ Mending Neko (Karjauskaupunki), ceramist and kintsugi teacher Katja Seppinen and Jonne Nurmela (Dodo & Bike Kitchen).
The event starts with a panel discussion on what motivates to repair instead of buying new things (Fin). After that there are drop in workshops where you can repair your own clothes and bicycle inner tubes. Bring something small to fix with you, or come and learn about the techniques!
The repair workshop is organised by Dodo ry and the Tale project / Kvs Foundation
