Your piece will join others in a large installation that reflects the beauty and diversity of our region.
Join an in-person session, or starting June 1, stop by the Hood River Library to pick up a take-and-make kit. Then, return your finished lace square to be included in the final artwork.Learn more and get started: columbiagorgemuseum.org/lace-project
