CREATE! Memories “Treasure Box” With Angela Bolaños

How do we hold onto the stories, places, and people that shape us? In this hands-on workshop, participants will explore the idea of storing memories through the creation of a personal memory box. Each will receive a small wooden box to transform into a container of remembrance and imagination. Using a variety of materials – markers, collage, and natural elements – you’ll design the outside of the box as a reflection of your identity, while the inside becomes a private space to hold keepsakes, written reflections, or symbolic objects.

This activity invites participants to think about how memories are preserved, altered, and passed down, and how art can be a vessel for personal and collective storytelling! By the end of the workshop, you’ll leave with a unique box that can continue to grow as a living archive of your own memory and meaning.

This event is a CREATE! featured workshop.

All featured workshops require a FREE ticket to attend due to limited seating. Tickets may be picked up at the Info Booth in Children’s Alley; a standby line will be available for each workshop in the event a ticketed attendee does not show up.
