Crafting in Place
Crafting Curiosity and Connecting Community Through Digital Storytelling
We launched our Crafting In Place project in March 2020 as COVID-19 redefined the world. In these uncertain times, craft can be calming, inspiring, and sustaining. Building community keeps us connected and hopeful.
Below you'll find a list of upcoming webinars, live videos, workshops, and more, as well as a full catalog of past content.
After multiple months of effort, a true treasure trove of resources has come together. We hope you enjoy!
