Mending is that bridge between creative worlds. Whether a hobbiest or professional, we all have something to share, contribute, and a sock with a hole. For those of us that are a little more quiet, it gives us a task to keep attentive to and help with any social anxiety. For those of us a little more outgoing, it gives a way to share our skills and stories with others.


If you are around Ames, join us at the Octagon Center for the Arts for the May Place to Mend. Can’t make it this month, mark your calendar… turns out this is turning into a monthly thing most 4th Thursdays of the month.

Until Next Time…
