Summer may be over, but the wonder continues!
From shaping clay, to stamping botanicals- WonderKids had a summer full of creativity and imagination. We are feeling inspired and looking forward to what the school year brings!

Speaking of the school year- Rural Arts Collaborative's WonderKids program operates the afterschool programs in all of OSSU's elementary schools.

Registration is coming soon! Keep an eye on communications from your schools to sign your family up!

Willey's Store is a cornerstone of our community and they are the kind of place that shows up for its neighbors. Their new "Wonder Friends" stuffed animals are helping build wonder for kids right here at home. A portion of the proceeds will be donated to RAC's WonderKids programming!

Pick one up at Willey's, and you're not just bringing home a new friend, you're helping provide creative, community building experiences for our local youth.

Thank you, Willey's, for believing in what we're building here.

Join RAC at the Hardwick Farmers Market tomorrow, Friday August 21! We will be stamping vegetables to create "Common Ground Flags." These community made flags are inspired by Lung Ta prayer flags which promote peace, compassion, and strength. Stamp your piece and add it to our string of flags to hang in the pavilion. We hope that this community flag will be a celebration of what we can grow together.
