Mend and Mic: A Repair Experience

Mend & Mic: Stitch Stories, Share Voices

Hosted by Fair Trade India in association with NIFT Bengaluru

Step into a morning where creativity meets consciousness! On Saturday, 18 April 2026 | 10:00 AM – 12:00 Noon, the vibrant campus of NIFT Bengaluru transforms into a space of mindful making, storytelling, and shared experiences with Mend & Mic — a unique, hands-on event celebrating repair culture, sustainability, and community.

Bring along:

• One apparel item you’d love to repair, revive, or reimagine
• A willingness to slow down, connect offline, and engage in a climate-conscious experience.
  
  Whether it’s a torn hem, a forgotten favourite, or a piece waiting for a second life, this is your moment to mend with intention.

Debuting exclusively at this event is NIFT 18.4 — a live, student-created campus radio experience. Expect an eclectic mix of music, conversations, and creative expression that will accompany your making journey and bring the space alive with voices and stories.

Your registration includes:

* A thoughtfully curated keep-sake sewing kit

* Light refreshments to keep the creative energy flowing

Registration Fee: ₹200 (inclusive of taxes).
This isn’t just a workshop — it’s a movement toward conscious consumption, creative repair, and meaningful connection.

Come mend, listen, and belong. Limited spots available. Join us in stitching a more thoughtful future.
