Come join us at Loma Alta Park to learn how to make your own stingray (rhombus-shaped) kite! Kitemaker Yaeun Stevie Choi will lead kids aged 8-12 through the kite-making process using biodegradable materials such as paper, bamboo and glue. The kite will be decorated with sustainability in mind: by using each others’ scraps. Moreover, participants will be guided in writing a letter addressed to our planet. They will write and draw about the habits they hope to cultivate in taking care of our planet such as leaving no trace, reducing usages of plastic, planting seeds, and more. The letter will be attached to the tail of the kite to be sent off!
Please make sure each participant is accompanied by an adult. Registration required.About the presenterYaeun Stevie Choi (they/she) is an artist-kitemaker and educator based in Koreatown.
