About the Event

Drop-in workshop 2:00 – 4:00 p.m.

Join Yarn Bombing Los Angeles for a series of hands-on, drop-in workshops exploring how we see and experience Los Angeles.

Over three Sunday afternoons, visitors are invited to contribute to a collaborative fiber art installation inspired by the exhibition Life, Liberty, and Los Angeles. Each session offers a simple, accessible making activity—no prior experience needed—using yarn and other materials to reflect on the city’s landscapes, rhythms, and communities.

You can participate in one workshop or return for all three. Each contribution becomes part of a larger, evolving artwork that will be installed on the museum’s mezzanine in September.

These workshops are designed as a space to pause, make, and connect—using a familiar creative process to expand observation, conversation, and shared experience.

Facilitated by Yarn Bombing Los Angeles
