Knit Wits 'Yarnbomb' Archer School Artemis Statue
School's knitting club initiates creative public art project on campus after Maypole rises.
Shortly after The Archer School for Girls continued the annual Brentwood Village tradition to erect its Maypole, the Artemis statue on the campus front lawn got yarnbombed by a band of knit wits.
The school's knitting club is behind the creative and colorful yarn caper.
Archer Parent Advisor Gita Rosenwald said the club had a blast getting Artemis clothed and accessorized this year in an effort to spur motivation to smile on campus and beyond. All of Artemis' garments and accessories were hand-knit by the members of the Knit Wits.
