At our final TAG meeting for the 2019-20 school year, get involved with planning for the future, including potential summer teacher institute and fall open house for teachers. The meeting will culminate in a Materials Swap! Leftover bead or a skein of yarn from a project you've finished? Bring them along and trade for a tool or tidbit you've been looking for to finish one of your own projects--for school or personal art-making. We’ll wrap up TAG with an exchange of goodies.
