Why Now?
Young people today are not alone in dealing with increased rates of stress, anxiety, and mental health challenges. Crafting and creativity offer a path to building the resilience they need to manage these challenges. The Magic of Making helps build these skills through engaging graphic novel stories, artists interviews, creativity tools and engaging craft projects.
Many Ways to Engage
The Magic of Making is a book in progress, but it's already been turned into a curriculum for group classes and workshops for kids and adults. And it works! You can learn more (PDF) about how in a paper published in the 2024 Indian Ocean Craft Triennial where Sarah presented her research and pilot study, on page 419.
