Natural Knitting Project Sajata Epps

The Natural Knitting Project is a collaborative Bronx arts exhibit focusing on the process of everyday products being created in an eco-friendly way. The project consisted of 14 workshops where Bronx residents got the chance to grow dye plants, knit a product from natural fibers, and explore our communities mass consumption of landfill products. All efforts resulted in a community art exhibit opened to the public after the project's completion in fall 2016. All Bronx residents were welcomed to participate and the exhibit debuted at Field Day 2016, The Laundromat Project's annual festival celebrating neighborhood arts and culture in Bedford-Stuyvensant, Harlem, and Hunts Point/Longwood.
