We are proud to partner with NAMI during their upcoming NAMIWalks Your Way 2022, by providing a Project Knitwell Learn to Knit outreach table. This vibrant gathering will be on October 8 at The Plaza at Tysons Corner Center. If you would like to join us to volunteer to teach knitting anytime between 7:30am–12pm, please email Volunteer Coordinator Jenn Benecke at jbenecke@knitwell.org. This is a wonderful way for Project Knitwell to partner with community allies and promote the therapeutic and mental wellness benefits of knitting.
We look forward to hosting a new Color Cafe class for Fiber Artists on the AHP calendar this upcoming October 6, 13, and 20 from 11am–12pm. To sign up for this free class, visit Eventbrite.
