Leaf Crafting Workshop for Ghost Tike: A Collective Memorial

Hosted by Caito Stewart

Leaf Crafting Workshop for Ghost Tike: A Collective Memorial
Join artist Caito Stewart in hand-crafting leaves for her collective memorial project. It's an easy, creative way to connect with others, share your grief, and remember your loved ones.

Not artistic? No problem!

No art supplies? Just use what you have.

In this workshop, hosted in partnership with the Covid Grief Network, you’ll get a glimpse of my story and process in creating my sculptural memorials. I’ll guide you through a short leaf-making session, and then invite you to share your leaves and remember your loved ones.

After the workshop, you can send your leaves to be included in the Ghost Tike art installation, and support the United States Postal Service.

Your leaves will also be individually featured on the Ghost Tike Memorial page, where you can visit or share them any time.
