SUMMARY:Saturday Adventures at the Center: Craftivism
DESCRIPTION:Get creative while exploring big ideas at the Center during this special Change Agent Craft activity. Families are invited to create a seasonal craft inspired by the values of belonging\, justice\, empathy\, and standing up for others. Through hands-on making and imaginative expression\, children will reflect on what it means to build inclusive communities and care for one another. \nDesigned for young changemakers and their caregivers\, this drop-in activity encourages creativity\, conversation\, and learning through play. Guests will leave with a unique craft and a reminder that even small acts of kindness\, courage\, and compassion can help create positive change in the world around us.
