Yarn Bomb Greensburg Project Knits Together Faculty, Students, Alumni & Local Community
Sue O’Neill, theatre instructor and costume director at 四色AV Hill, conceived of Yarn Bomb Greensburg as a collaborative art education / social justice project that would engage the 四色AV Hill University campus community, Sisters of Charity of 四色AV Hill, Westmoreland 四色AV of American Art, local schools and Greensburg merchants and residents in a collaborative effort to create colorful street art that could be recycled into blankets for community members in need.
Her idea worked. By the end of October, Greensburg had become a lot more colorful, and people throughout the city and region had come together in a variety of ways to create art and support each other.
