Creating Community by Hand

Join for a lively discussion on the community resilience we build when we share time making art and music together. As adults and children get more engaged with our electronic devices, the gifts of the stitch & bitch, evenings singing around a campfire or cooking together to support local families are being lost to our communities. Creating art or music together are ancient and incredibly meaningful ways of investing in the people we know and appreciate in our lives.
