Event Details
New Branches for Naomi’s Tree: Craft Workshop with Collage Collage
After a virtual (Zoom) visit to the cherry tree and childhood home of author Joy Kogawa, families and children are invited to make a Family Mobile that celebrates the story of “Naomi’s Tree” while welcoming families to revisit their own family stories and depict their own shared memories.
Supplies will be provided for families to create a 3D Mobile that uses the branch cutting as a base and provides a chance to depict personal histories by way of collage, assemblage, and beading.
With access to a pre-recorded online video, families will be led through a hands-on craft activity that can repurpose the cherry branch tip for a large mobile to work on together, or for several smaller ones. Families can decorate the branch with blossoms, collage, and other elements that link their own family history.Children, adults, and everyone in between will find an invitation to get creative with Historic Joy Kogawa House in collaboration with Collage Collage as part of this Family Day virtual tour and craft workshop.
