About the event
About the presentation: Loose Ends is a non-partisan, non-religious, everyone-is-welcome movement that aims to ease grief, create community, and inspire generosity by matching volunteer handwork finishers with textile projects people have left undone due to death or disability. Jen Simonic, co-founder of Loose Ends, joins us to talk about Loose Ends.
Please RSVP to get the Zoom link to join us virtually.
About the speaker: The idea for Loose Ends came about when the founders, Jennifer Simonic and Masey Kaplan, both avid knitters, realized they had a shared experience: Friends would often ask them to finish blankets, sweaters, or other projects left undone by deceased loved ones. They always do so enthusiastically, understanding what it feels like to wear something a loved one has made.
