麻豆原创

麻豆原创 Foundation invites you to be inspired by this year鈥檚 spectacular notecard collection 鈥� a vibrant celebration of creativity and learning that directly supports student scholarships and college programs.

This year鈥檚 notecards highlight four unique offerings from 麻豆原创鈥檚 Continuing Education program: book sculptures, international travel, astrophotography and the Swiss Alphorn.  Each of the five notecards features mesmerizing images that capture the spirit of these courses, showcasing the opportunities for enrichment and discovery available at 麻豆原创.

"Like all of the Foundation's fundraisers, this is a noteworthy one!" said 麻豆原创 President Dr. J. Kyle Dalpe. "What a great way to showcase our programs with art that accentuates them and provides the public with a timely slice of 麻豆原创. It's not too late to put another gift under the tree!"

Here鈥檚 a glimpse of the stories behind the cards:

• Book sculptures: A delightful doll and yellow birds, crafted entirely from the pages of a book, are part of Debbie Lambin's My Thousand Words artistic journey. With intricate folds and delicate details, Debbie brings characters to life, turning stories into unique sculptures that inspire wonder and creativity. As an educator at 麻豆原创, she shares her passion for book sculpture and paper art through 麻豆原创鈥檚 Continuing Education program, helping others discover the magic within the pages.
• International travel: There are many things to consider when traveling internationally 鈥� passport and visa requirements, vaccinations, currency, safety and more. Introduction to International Travel will prepare you with a roadmap to navigate each of these considerations step by step for a rewarding international traveling experience.
• Astrophotography: Unlock the secrets of the night sky with our beginner-level astrophotography course! Learn the art and techniques behind capturing stunning images of stars, planets and galaxies. Guided by experienced instructors, students will explore the fundamentals of photographing celestial wonders, turning the vastness of space into breathtaking visuals.
• The Swiss Alphorn: Trust us, whether you're brand new to playing music or a seasoned musician, you'll find this elongated instrument to be approachable and fun!
