One of the Community Center's regular volunteers brought in a whole stack of blank hats recently and helped our members turn them into one-of-a-kind works of art! Each member had an absolute blast painting, designing, and showing off their unique designs and creations.

We love the magic that was created and seeing how powerful creativity and community can be.
