Make a family keepsake book at this workshop hosted by artist Alicia Rheal! Parents & grandparents will work together with their children to create a book of family mementos that they'll be able to take home after the workshop. All supplies for the book-making will provided, but families are invited to bring in their own family photos or keepsakes if they'd like to include them in their book.
