Any sponsorship funding not utilized to put on this event rolls into the Pantry Project, which provides flexible funding to each school to purchase food, clothing, and hygiene items for students. For more information, click here.

Work Space Needed!

We have a Marshallese Master Carver, and we are looking for space for the carving classes for less than a 5 month timeframe if we can get started asap and can increase classes in the summer. It would have to be a large empty room for possibly 20 teenagers, carvers, and supervisors working on a 20 ft canoe. If the canoe is completed, the Burke museum at the UW may have some interest. For more information, please email [email protected].
