What’s Your Story? (CADETTES)


Girl Scouts are invited to participate in a four-part series of hands-on workshops for Cadettes inspired by the exhibition The Perfect Fit: Shoes Tell Stories.

Learn how artists tell stories and share your stories with others in a special exhibition on the last day of the series.
