The « Sewing Bar » aims to create a collaborative space for creation, sharing of knowledge for all ages, dedicated to prevention, textile waste management and upcycling. It promotes reusing which increases objects lifetime and fosters circular economy. The idea started from the observation of overconsumption and overproduction in the textile industry (clothes, accessory, fabric).
The goal is to promote awareness to a more moderated consumption (second hand clothes, re-use, upcycling) and to a responsible practice and commitment by learning manual skills for arts and crafts. Last but not least, the objective is to share and/or learn again forgotten knowledges due to industrialization and globalization.
