Clothing & household items swap + clothing repair

Événement

Bring something, get something: Bring items you want to donate and leave with something new to you, donated by other students. Patch-making: Bring in damaged clothes and learn how to mend them, or how to make clothing patches from scrap fabric. Let's work together to reduce textile waste! This event will include a buy-nothing, mutual aid clothing swap. You are invited to bring clothing or household items you no longer use and exchange them for items brought by others. The number of items you bring is the same number you may take (for example, bringing five items allows you to leave with five items). Any items left in good condition at the end of the event will be donated to the Chez Doris women’s shelter . We also encourage you to bring items that are typically rejected by thrift stores, such as clothing with small holes or stains. We will provide supplies and instructions for patching holes or creating fabric patches that can be sewn onto jeans or bags using scrap fabric. The goal is to reduce textile waste and keep materials out of landfills. Facilitators Lucy Feininger-Hughes (she/her), Peer Wellness Ambassador Aoife O’Conell (she/they), Peer Wellness Ambassador

CULTURE MONTRÉAL EN CARTE

About this map

Montréal has a rich cultural offering, but information is scattered across websites, social networks, noticeboards and posters. Getting an overview can be difficult. Montréal en culture aims to simplify discovery by bringing cultural activities together in all their variety. The project is also inspired, with some nostalgia, by the weekly calendar of the cultural magazine View, which featured a varied offering, from shows to talks and from popular events to more unconventional activities. Adding a map, Montréal en culture invites you to explore that richness across the city. Still a prototype, this independent project aims to become an essential reference for cultural outings in Montréal.

The site was originally designed for desktop use. A mobile interface is now available.

A broad understanding of culture

The directory takes a broad view of culture: artistic creation, presentation, heritage, knowledge sharing, and opportunities for discovery or participation. It covers the Montréal urban agglomeration, including its associated islands. Its scope develops with the sources and activities recorded.
