family! CSA’s Holiday Make and Take Family Workshop is a place to laugh, play, and get creative with both
traditional and experimental art projects. Make Christmas tree ornaments out of recycled plastic that will astound
and amaze. Design a snowflake mobile that would look right at home in a magical ice castle. Decorate a
