About Celebrate & Create
In Celebrate & Create, children engage in unique craft projects inspired by inclusive monthly celebration themes. These craft projects are based on social issues, which are also discussed at the event. These events allow children to learn entry level and age appropriate information about a topic in a safe and inclusive environment. Our goal is to share impactful information through fun, free, accessible, and meaningful activities. Typically, a Celebrate & Create event are held each month. Examples of social issues we discuss include LGBTQ+ Pride, Independence Day, Small Businesses, etc. We look forward to your participation!
