Come have your jeans repaired, and learn both hand- and machine-mending techniques for garment repair!
Kelly Hogaboom of Bespoke Hogaboom (Aberdeen, WA) will be joined by Traci Kay Pryde of Pryde Hantverk (Graham, WA) to a Mending Lab in Hoquiam at ART HQx! Saturday June 18th!
They will be demonstrating jean and garment repair – you can bring YOUR item that needs to be mended or altered, and they will take a look! They will do as much mending as they can onsite, and they will also have resources to share about how to mend and care for your clothing for a more sustainable, cost-savings wardrobe.
Music provided by the wonderful DJ Ohms of Analog Boss!

Washington Sea Grant is sponsoring a one-day Sea Safety and Survival Course (Drill Instructor) for commercial fishermen and charter boat operators.
This Coast Guard-approved workshop meets the training requirements of the Commercial Fishing Safety Act to conduct drills. Coursework combines lecture and hands-on experience with the safety and survival equipment now required for commercial fishing vessels. Participants will learn about emergency procedures and be trained to develop appropriate emergency drills for their own vessels.
