Independence First - The Resource for People with Disabilities

🎨✨ Creativity was on full display this week at Independence First's Arts & Crafts Workshop!

Participants gathered for Junk Journal Junction, the first session in our summer Arts & Crafts series. Unlike a traditional journal, a junk journal uses images, stickers, drawings, found objects, keepsakes, and other creative materials to tell a story or express ideas without relying on words. No two journals are alike, and each participant created something uniquely their own.

Missed this session? There's still time to join us! Our free Arts & Crafts Workshop Series continues throughout the summer with a variety of hands-on projects, including dioramas, beadwork, clay creations, linocut printmaking, and more.

Upcoming workshops:
🎨 June 17 – Diorama-rama
🧵 July 8 – Just Bead It
🏺 July 22 – Clayful Creations
🖨️ August 5 – Carve It Up (Linocut)
♻️ August 19 – Waste to Wow
