After a strong push to get things assembled and ready last weekend and the past few days things are starting to fall into place, literally!

This week the students are wrapping up the Spring 2018 semester with final presentations and documentation of all work. Although it was a little bit late of our schedule, we finished up the Butterfly Book Nook with flying colors. We are all so pleased with the final results and so is the community! In addition [...]
