Textile Therapy Pop Up @ Reduce Waste Chicago Sustainability Market

The North Center Neighbors Association will be collecting a wide range of items for recycling and redistribution.

Our team of textile experts will be available on-site to support you through your garment grief, apparel pains, woolen woes, and dress distress. We are here to make you “hole” again.
