Scrapbooking

Join NoHa Collective for a scrapbooking session during Doors Open. Using Black-based imagery from magazines, books and more, explore your artistry and visual storytelling gifts to share your perspectives and passions with friends, family and community.

NoHa “envisions a world where our vibrant cultures are fully appreciated, respected, and celebrated.” The workshop is another way we both continue to foster dialogue across borders and cultures to uplift our community.
