From creative to creator
The world keeps telling girls that girlhood is a problem to manage. We see it differently.
Given the choice, 65% of girls would rather create something than be on a screen. The curiosity is already in her. What she needs is a place to use it — and someone who shows up while she does.
That’s what this workshop is built for. No experience needed. Just curiosity.
A place to make, tinker, and take flight
Over seven Tuesday afternoons, girls in grades K–2 design and build their own wearable butterfly wings — learning real engineering and creativity along the way. The program ends with a Butterfly Showcase, where she walks the runway in the wings she made.
