Rethread Boston 🌎👕 🌿

We're so grateful you joined us to celebrate a livable future at our inaugural ecofestival with the City of Boston Arts and Culture.

From fits hand-picked by your neighbors to hands-on education in plant dyeing, silk screen printing, herbalism, mycology, and yogic philosophies for non-violence, we hope this inspiration follows you into fall and beyond 🍄🪡

Many of you asked:
Do you do this every year?
When is the next one?
How can I support?

To grow Rethread, please leave us your feedback on our website or below as a comment:
Baystaters.org/bostonrethread

Your ideas and support will help us secure more sponsorships for future festivals.
We want your experience to be legendary, and together we'll spread the fire of a grassroots movement for peace, nature, and creative well-being ❤️‍🔥
