Grab a Knitting Dolly and Knit Yourself a Knitted Pinky
“A man once shouted at Auntie Fem:
Don’t knit inside the tram!
That’s always ill-advised!
You poke me with your needles, see,
And soon we’ll both be tangled in
a web of woolly threads!”
— Annie M.G. Schmidt
No worries! We won’t poke anyone with knitting needles, though we can’t promise you won’t get delightfully tangled up in our Knitting Parade!
Join us in the whimsical world of words by Annie M.G. Schmidt: knit, dance along with us, and spin endless threads that we can later weave into woolly acts of kindness.
Knitting dollies and yarn will be provided, but if you happen to have some colorful wool at home, you’re very welcome to bring it along! Together we’ll knit enough to wrap Podium Explore in warmth and soft words later on.
About the Stadshart
From November 5 to 23, Podium Explore transforms into the Stadshart. Every afternoon, a different local scene or community hosts a DIY session under the name Studio Stadshart. One day you can solder guitar pedals, the next you’ll learn how to make your own sourdough starter. And in the evening, unwind with bands, talks, and performances!
Is there food?
Yes. Pop-up restaurant De Voedselbar serves lunch, dinner, and all-day snacks. The Stadshart is basically your favorite café, just one where there’s always something cool to do or see. It’s also the perfect place to connect with creative scenes, neighbors, friends, and communities from the region. Open daily from 12:00 to 00:00!
