The Southwest Women's Fiber Arts Collective (SWFAC) in collaboration with the Future Forge Makerspace, is offering community members free mending of clothes and teaching how to mend clothes. This free program will be held at the Future Forge located at 307 East College Ave on Saturday, September 19, 2026 from 10 am to 12 noon.
Do you have a favorite shirt that has a tear or needs a button replaced? What about those favorite pants that have a tear in the pocket? Don't toss them, come and have them repaired for free! In September, we will be doing all mending by hand.
Mending clothes is one of the methods we can all do to keep good clothing out of our landfill. SWFAC members will be on hand to mend the items, and community members who learn how to mend with the SWFAC members, will receive a small sewing kit.

It is a time of inner renewal and divine atonement. Yom Kippur is the Day of Atonement. The days between are known as a time of charity, prayer & repentance during which people are encouraged to get right with those they have wronged and to forgive those who have wronged them.

WHERE:WNMU Besse-Forward Global Resource Center Auditorium, corner of 12th Street and Kentucky Street
The Western Institute of Lifelong Learning (WILL) invites the community to join us on September 16 at noon for "Party Perspectives: A Conversation on the Issues," a moderated conversation featuring representatives from the Grant County Republican and Democratic Parties. The event—which takes place at WNMU's Global Resource Center—is part of WILL's Lunch and Learn series and is inspired by our Informed Citizens curriculum.
Moderated by WILL Executive Director Mary O. Parker, the program is designed to foster respectful dialogue, thoughtful conversation, and a deeper understanding of different perspectives. This is not a debate. Instead, Party Perspectives will provide a structured, civil exchange focused on issues that matter to Grant County residents.
