Come over and get crafty with us. Camaraderie and clever upcycling ideas circulate at our sessions!

What do you want to repair, reuse, or reinvent today? Choose your adventure...

Option 1: Social sew! BYO sewing machine, use a loaner, or bring your hand sewing project or mending. We also have some discarded fabric/ clothes ready to cut up and play with and some basic sewing tools, as well.

Option 2: Fix it! Repairs are less odious - even fun - with friends, new and old! Bring your broken tchotchkes, dilapidated heirlooms, or jewelry in need of a makeover. We can provide some glues and hand tools.

Option 3: Finish it! Bring along an unfinished collage or craft project and get your momentum back.

First time on us, $5 donation, no one turned away for lack of funds. Some snacks provided. We invite you to bring a vegetarian snack to share.

Please change your RSVP on meetup if you can't make it, so someone else can have a spot. We're looking forward to creating with you!

Location notes:
The "Joy Factory" is a private home in Alameda's West End. Our house is not wheelchair accessible (1/2 flight of stairs). We have cats. Street parking is sometimes crowded.
