Knit Democracy Together: Representing All Voices

March 14 @ 5:30 pm - 7:00 pm

EST  | In person

Gather with civically minded crafters to deepen your knowledge of democracy while knitting or crocheting a piece of a collaborative sculpture of the New Hampshire State House. (You can participate without knitting too!) Artist and former election lawyer Eve Jacobs-Carnahan will give a presentation and lead discussion about redistricting (gerrymandering) and nonpartisan alternatives to traditional primaries. You’ll learn how these mechanisms of the electoral process affect all of us, no matter where we live. Modeled on the idea of a knitting circle, this friendly gathering connects community members who want to strengthen democracy.
