Keepsake Box: Beyond the Cap & Gown is a guided, hands-on workshop for parents, grandparents, guardians, and loved ones who want to create a meaningful gift to honor a 2026 graduate.
Participants will personalize a pre-assembled wooden keepsake box using decorative techniques and thoughtful design choices, transforming it into a one-of-a-kind gift. The finished box is ideal for holding photos, notes, cords, medals, and other mementos that mark the journey beyond graduation.
No prior experience is required. All materials, tools, and instruction are provided.
This program is $15 for current Maker Space Members (use coupon: MEMBER2) or $40 for guests.
