Event Details

Pay homage to some of the most prominent women in science, technology, engineering and math using amigurumi, the Japanese art of crocheting dolls. Led by Suw Charman-Anderson, founder of Ada Lovelace Day.

Suw Charman-Anderson is the founder of Ada Lovelace Day, an international celebration of the achievements of women in science, technology, engineering and maths. Each year, ALD hosts a flagship science cabaret event in London, whilst around the world independent groups put on their own events. The organisation also works year round to raise the profile of and support women in STEM, producing a monthly podcast, a free education pack for teachers, posters, and a resources database for women in STEM. 

Note: We have an assortment of crochet hooks available for your use during the class, but if you have your own size F/5 (3.75mm) pair, we recommend that you bring it along.

Preregistration is required. Ages 12 and up.  All skill levels are welcome.
