All materials are provided, but participants are encouraged to bring any natural materials they want to experiment with. We recommend wearing clothing that you don’t mind getting messy.

Her artistic and educational practice is rooted in the belief that making can serve as a powerful tool for storytelling, cultural exchange, and collective care.
