Community service is important, not just for the people being served, but for the people serving too. This is because it builds skills that are necessary to thrive in the 21st century, such as collaboration, communication, critical thinking, and creativity. Working with other volunteers and community leaders is a great way to build connections too.
Last Friday, our fashion design class took a field trip to help set up the annual SVQA Harvest Quilt and Fiber Arts show. It was a lot of fun getting to see the behind-the-scenes of how an event is run, and it felt good to know that we were an important part of the show coming together!
