Check out this opportunity.

I am super excited to be teaming up with Hmong Cultural Center of Minnesota to host this amazing workshop at the 2024 Qeej and Hmong Arts Festival! Come and learn how to hand make, and take home your very own traditional Hmong crossbow! Or just stop by and shoot some crossbows for fun :) This is a FREE event and workshop, and will take about 2 – 4 hours of time depending on your experience, but supplies and space are limited, so make sure to come early! See you soon!!!

…and finally, none of this would have been possible without the dedicated volunteers and team members who helped to ensure that our small ethnic minority group was represented at CelebrAsian.

Thank you all, until next year.
