GSSEM Creative Compass Patch Program: Join artists Amanda Koss and Andrew Sigman to learn all about origami and how the practice can be a tool in your maintaining your mental health!
The GSSEM Creative Compass Patch Program, under the creation and expertise of local artist Amanda Koss, is designed to be a transformative program to inspire Girl Scouts to reach their highest potential by recognizing and unlocking their inherent creative abilities! By connecting Girl Scouts with working artists, artisans, and innovative opportunities - the program fosters curiosity, self-expression, and personal growth. In a supportive and empowering environment, Girl Scouts will explore unconventional ways to impact their communities while discovering their own unique creative paths.
Created by artist and curator Amanda Koss, this program reflects her commitment to empowering youth, nurturing creativity, and providing access to the tools and opportunities needed to achieve their dreams.
