Just show up on June 9th, between 11 a.m. and 4 p.m., with your needles, hooks or wheel and you will get in for free. Bring your unwanted yarn and tools to swap with other knitters.
There will be drawings for door prizes every hour.

Enjoy demonstrations and learn new tips and tricks from talented volunteers from 11:00 to 2:00.
At 2:00 p.m., join artist, designer and activist Tanya Aguiñiga for a talk exploring the ongoing community-art and interventionist activities of the bi-national artist initiative AMBOS: Art Made Between Opposite Sides.
Tanya Aguiñiga’s fiber art, featured in the Mint’s permanent collection, uses craft as a medium to generate dialogues about identity, culture, and gender while creating community.
