Yarn Bombing this Friday September 18th at 7PM

Definition: "Yarnstorming (also known as yarnbombing): the art of enhancing a public place or object with graffiti knitting"
(Or putting knitting on something unexpected in public and running always giggling wildly)

A Yarn Bombing is just a fun way to display some creativity in a public place and Art Space Essex will be doing one this Friday September 18 at 7pm in celebration of our first Open Studio of the year which is Saturday September 19th! The Yarn Bombing display will be up all day Saturday.

Join us in downtown Essex in front of the old Bennigans to decorate the town in knitted and crocheted creativity!  We are just winging this since its our first time, so we are going to simply have fun and hopefully put some smiles on the locals faces :)

If you are not able to join us to put up the yarn bombing, maybe you can help us take it down Saturday September 19th at 4PM.

Hope to see you there!
