In the summer, we gathered on 5th Ave in Troy for an all-girls mini scrapbook workshop. Heather, one of the original Scrappin’ Upstate girls, helped her daughter Jaeda, now age 10, to make her own scrapbook. We met every day – we had a lemonade stand, made cookies, and hiked along the Hudson. We made a window display of some of our Creek & Rail fashions.
The workshop culminated in a weekend trip to New York City, where we went on a whale watch and participated in the New York Art Book Fair at MoMA PS1. There, we presented our new book Upstate Girls: Unraveling Collar City.
