7-9pm
Join Amy Lamé – writer, presenter, performer and all-round glamourpuss for Pom Pom International; a witty mixture of pom pom making and conflict resolution.

This global phenomenon of yarny art promotes peace and understanding across the world through pom pom making, travelling to areas of conflict to make whimsical, non-political, creative balls of fluffy yarn. All pom poms made are tagged, tracked and sewn together to make the biggest pom pom in the world. Be a part of this unique initiative!

During the evening there will also be themed tours of Origin, and opportunity to talk to makers and shop until 9pm.
