Yarn Bombing Los Angeles is a fiber arts community that engages 2000 people online, 500 people worldwide, and 30-200 people locally in the Los Angeles area. YBLA currently collaborates with city governments, museums, alternative art spaces, and public spaces to create thought-provoking, community-generated public art installations.
YBLA's work blends and reinterprets different artistic genres of street art, public art, fiber art, social practice, craft, and high art. YBLA's mission is to create a form of community-generated, site-specific public art that is tactile and accessible, while at the same time initiating dialogue about cross-generation connections and craft history.
All are welcome at YBLA's public events which are listed on our Calendar page.

Yarn Bombing Los Angeles would like to bid a fond farewell to its founder Arzu Arda Kosar and welcome Carol Zou as the new "Head Poncho" of YBLA activities. Arzu has been the main instigator, visionary, facilitator and producer of YBLA events since 2011. Arzu is now passing the torch on to Carol, who has been her main collaborator for CAFAM Granny Squared, to pursue her other interests. We thank Arzu for her vision, energy and dedication to activating YBLA and wish her the best for her future projects.
