International Denim Day: Jeans Mending Workshop

Originating from Italy in 1999 and occurring in tandem with Sexual Assault Awareness Month, International Denim Day is all about spreading awareness around sexual violence issues, supporting survivors, and educating ourselves and others. Join FWM and Philadelphia Center Against Sexual Violence (WOAR) for this drop-in workshop focused on healing and mending. Bring a denim item to mend with an iron-on patch to decorate with screenprinting and woodblock printing. From 5–6 pm, join a conversation around the healing process for survivors, led by Masters of Public Health at WOAR. Learn more about Denim Day at denimdayinfo.org

 

Suggested donation of $5.

 

Proceeds from this event will go to Philadelphia Center Against Sexual Violence (WOAR).
