A Community Knitting Circle-June

Join artist Linda Litteral for a monthly community knitting circle contributing to Remember, a large-scale art installation honoring those who have experienced sexual trauma.

No prior knitting experience is required— participants are welcome to learn how to knit while taking part in a meaningful, collective artwork. All supplies are provided.

Remember will be presented at Grossmont College in early 2027 and will feature hundreds of hand-knitted, streaming banners— with each stitch honoring an individual impacted by sexual violence. Through this immersive installation and community participation, the project seeks to foster awareness, remembrance, and solidarity through the quiet, powerful act of making.

Contributors to the project will be acknowledged in the exhibition catalog. Whether you join once or return each month, your participation helps bring this important installation to life.
