Final Fridays: Knit Wit

Join Spike Gillespie for a FREE hands-on knitting workshop! No knitting experience is required, and all supplies will be provided. Participants will learn the basics of the art of knitting, and all supplies are provided. Participants are welcome to take home their supplies. In honor of beloved Austin writers O. Henry and Molly Ivins, the O. Henry Museum enthusiastically announces a new series of creative gatherings— Final Fridays. O. Henry, famous for his short stories, also was a talented musician and sketch artist. Molly Ivins, famous for her hilarious political commentary, was also a knitter and raconteur who hosted boisterous monthly parties known as Final Friday. To celebrate their gifts and their Austin spirit, join us for mini-classes in sketching, fiber art, storytelling, writing and more.
