Hey, we did a thing—Zine Camp!
During mid-winter recess—February 20-24, 2023—schools are out, so we are offering a week of hands-on zine and bookmaking activities for kids aged 7-10.
Space is limited!
Today’s the day!
It’s #GivingTuesday 🤑 and we’re raising funds to support our education program!
Our goal of $3,000 provides art supplies for 150 students. To give a sense of your dollar-for-dollar impact, $20 provides art supplies for one student; $40 for two students, and so on. Can you help us reach this goal?
