TOAST continually seeks out ways to extend the life of garments, encouraging their community to do the same with their cherished pieces. Artist Molly Martin will discuss sashiko repair while TOAST Renewal specialists will offer mending consultations demonstrating traditional repair techniques. In this way, TOAST hopes to inspire people to try a variety of craft techniques and reconsider their relationship with clothing.
All proceeds from ticket sales will be donated to the Somerset House Young Talent Fund. This provides bursaries and financial relief to artists, as well as opportunities for under-represented people aged 18-25 seeking to get into the creative sector.
