ART-Knitting Performance Mark Newport at Edinboro

I got the following announcement from Anita Joslyn I went on line to the link she sent and checked it out. The knitting looks really cool. I probable will not make the evening lecture but the panel discussion and performance piece in the afternoon was tempting.
Each year the Visiting Artist Committee brings a guest artist to campus, and this year it is knitter Mark Newport. It’s a 2-day event with an evening lecture on March 31; then a panel discussion “Thinking Through Crafts” the next morning; and a 50-minute performance piece in the afternoon. Knitters invited to come and bring an in-progress project along to the latter. It’s all free admission. Feel free to share with your knitting friends and guild. Here is a link to the news release we sent out about it. http://www.edinboro.edu/news/detail.dot?inode=664471 If you decide to come to Edinboro for this, I can recommend the University Club for lunch. $6.50 per person, buffet style with a salad bar and beverage included. The food is always really good!
