About this Event
SHINE U is an in-house program that highlights the letters "H" hobbies, "I" interests/irritants and "E" experiences from our SHINE framework. The objective is to foster discovery, exploration and experimentation for our participants in a low stakes kind of way. SHINE U workshops connect people with unique hobbies, interests/irritants & experiences to help promote learning, diversity, inclusivity and community.
In this workshop, facilitated by Amanda Sapera, you'll explore the creative process of perseving memories through "junk" materials. Learn how to transform everyday items like receipts, food wrappers, stickets, any and all mementos, telling your personal stories in a visual way. It's the perfect way to use items you think are "junk" into a piece of art that displays your daily life.
Meet our facilitator: Amanda Sapera!
Amanda Sapera is a 35-year-old Plano resident and dedicated first-grade teacher with a decade of experience in the North Dallas area. Passionate about creativity and memory keeping, in 2024, she founded the DFW Junk Journal Club, which now boasts over 100 members. The club meets multiple times a month across the metroplex, offering a welcoming space for fellow journal enthusiasts to share techniques, create, and preserve memories together. When she’s not teaching or journaling, Amanda enjoys making memories worth preserving. She loves spending time with family and friends, traveling, attending sporting events, and exploring new restaurants and activities in the community—giving her plenty of inspiration for her journaling projects!
