Bring a sack lunch or purchase a treat from the Shawarma Ur's food truck and enjoy an artist talk with members of Sip & Stitch, a group of fiber artist friends who enjoy getting together for wine and creative time!

Known for their recent "yarn bombing" of the Tom Otterness bronze sculpture 𝘔𝘪𝘭𝘭𝘪𝘱𝘦𝘥𝘦 (Millie) (as well as a campus-wide yarn bombing in 2014), this group of 16 artists worked for eight months using approximately 25,000 to 30,000 yards of yarn to create 24 sections of handwork — knitting, crochet, cross-stitch, and crewel embroidery — which they installed on Aug. 27.

Visit Millie in the garden south of the Ulrich Museum to see her finery, and hear about the artists' process at this free event.

Food Truck: 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.
Artist Talk: 12:15 to 1 p.m.
