For the whole month of February, we are encouraging parents to read to their children every day. The center will be having a competition on how many books each classroom can read in a month. The teachers will be making hearts for the parents to write on. When you read a book to your child write your child's name, what book they read, and the date on the heart then bring it back to the teacher's so they can display it on the classroom door. The classroom with the most hearts wins more books for their classroom!

FSS Spotlight
What is your favorite part about working at Arts & Crafts? My favorite part about working with the Arts and Crafts Center is the fun I have with the other girls. We are really a tight-knit group and get along so well, which makes working here that much more enjoyable. They are my family away from home.
What do you wish the Misawa Community knew about your programs?
Kayla Reichenbach Assistant Director Misawa Arts & Crafts Center

February 2022
What I wish the Misawa Community knew about our program is that we have a framing, graphic, and wood shop department. These programs are often overlooked because they are in a different location. Our staff is comprised of amazing, hardworking and talented individuals!
What is your best Arts & Crafts memory? My best memory with the Arts and Crafts Center is getting to plan and set up for our big events, like Winter Extravaganza. Having a hand in planning from start to finish and seeing how it affects the community here on Misawa Air Base is a very satisfying feeling.
