Using the metaphor from the Filipinx practice of the “Balikbayan Box,” this is an art workshop for teens/almost teens that provides us ways to creatively reflect the return home to ourselves. Using collaging, markers, stickers, & colored pencils, we reflect on our identity, healing, hopes, and dreams.

Registration REQUIRED — email teens@dobbsferrylibrary.org to sign up.
