Pieces of Home is a small, guided creative experience marking the one-year anniversary of the 2025 Los Angeles wildfires.
Designed for those impacted by the fires, this project focuses on preserving meaningful memories and creating something to remember, while looking ahead to the new year and a new chapter.
Participants will create a personal fabric-based art piece that reflect their version of home—what was, what mattered most, and what they hope to carry forward. No sewing experience is required. Every piece will be framed and ready to hang. A piece of home in a new chapter.

Ideas On What to Bring
Participants are welcome to bring small items that remind you of the home or neighborhood you lost, or that represent what home has meant to you.
Please bring only items you feel comfortable leaving with us temporarily and that can be incorporated into a 10×10 artwork, later framed in a 12×12 shadow box.
If you don’t have personal items to bring, that’s completely okay — we will have other supplies to help you tell your story, create a piece that honors what home has meant to you and what you hope to carry forward.
Aside from personal items, all materials will be provided.
