The final days of "The Zurich Archipelago" are just around the corner.
To mark the closing of "The Zurich Archipelago," we warmly invite everyone to a grand get-together. We have planned a picnic on the patchwork blankets that were created during the festival from the crochet and knit squares produced and collected together. The food will be provided by the Social Kitchen. Beforehand, we will meet at the Arboretum, where curator Mirjam Varadinis will give an introduction to several on-site projects. Afterwards, we will stroll together through the city to Platzspitzpark, carrying the colorful patchwork blankets. The more people, the more festive it will be. So please, everyone come along!
