Started off the week the perfect way with a river tour with for Lancaster Water Week

Always love learning more history about the places I love so much. There’s a few events I’m hoping to make it to this week, check some out if you get a chance! 💧💚

I had the opportunity to paint a monarch butterfly for the Voices of Migration project, representing my family’s journey to Lancaster.

This project felt like a full-circle moment. A few months ago, I connected with a long lost branch of my family through AncestryDNA results I had received a few years ago. It made me realize how much of our history can go unknown, and how important it is to preserve and share those stories.

Being able to create a piece inspired by my roots that will be displayed in Southeast Lancaster where my father and uncles migrated to means a lot to me. I wanted to honor the journeys that shape who we are.
