Join The Kids Chef, Lily Kilfoy, for a series of cooking classes for school-age kids, tweens, and their families. Participants will learn about different foods, where they come from, how to follow recipes, and how to use a variety of tools.  Registration is not required, but participation will be limited to the first 25 attendees. 

Food generously provided by Willy St. Co-op North.

Stop by to have your items repaired. Menders will be available on site to help repair items, and teach basic mending skills. 

Do you have clothing or other fabric items that need mending? Sewers from the Sewing Machine Project are offering free mending. These helpful sewers mend clothing and can handle any other fabric-related repairs (exception: no zipper repairs). 

3-4 skilled volunteers will also be available to teach mending skills. This is your chance to ask questions, and learn the basics for mending your own items at home. No sign-up required! 

This program is part of the Care & Repair program series, which is made possible thanks to support from Beyond the Page, National Endowment for the Humanities and Madison Community Foundation. See all upcoming programs at madpl.org/careandrepair.
