Balikbayan Box:
A Care Package Workshop


with Sara Chao

Saturday, September 28, 2019 1-4PM
at Eagle Rock Plaza
​2700 Colorado Blvd | LA, CA 90041


Workshop Description:
In this workshop, learn about the ultimate Filipinx care package, the Balikbayan Box, with artist Sara Chao. In Tagalog, the word “balikbayan” means repatriate, a Filipinx returning back to the Philippines from abroad. Filipinx living abroad will send these care packages home between visits, filled with food, clothes and toys. During the workshop, you will get to make a special care package for a loved one using collage and fabric materials, letter-writing supplies, and more.
