Join us every Tuesday to create quilts for children in need! We give you all the tools and knowledge you need to make a beautiful quilt regardless of your skill level. All quilts created are given to the Bloom House to serve the children across our state that need it most. A fun way to give back and learn a new skill, hope you can join us!

Come join us in the Honk 4 Voting Rights (H4VR) Caravan scheduled to take place on Thursday, August 6th, 2020. H4VR is to commemorate the signing of the Voting Rights Act of 1965, and encourage residents of Selma, AL to register to vote.

This is a great opportunity to engage with the community in a safe, socially distant way, while encouraging participation in our democratic system. You are encouraged to join the caravan with vehicles, signs, noisemakers, etc., and to please help us to let people know about the event by sharing the flyers and Facebook event page.
