Join our Exploring the Arts senior intern, Teaching Artist, Amerie Bugarin, in a hands-on workshop that introduces the skills of woodworking and creative thinking in the form of a miniature home! This workshop will allow those affected by the Eaton fire to have a safe and creative space to create what they would want their new home to look like and to see what makes them feel safe and at home to carry in their hands.
