📦 Big changes are happening at NAMI Anchorage! 💚

Our shelves are emptying, our boxes are filling up, and we're getting ready for our move to our new home at Umoja CoWorking!

As we continue packing throughout June, please note that there will be no Saturday Crafternoons during the month of June. We appreciate your patience and understanding as we prepare for this exciting transition.

We'd also like to extend a huge thank you to Alaskan AIDS Assistance Association (Four A's) Anchorage for generously donating so many boxes to help make this move possible. Community support like this makes a tremendous difference, and we're so grateful for your kindness and partnership. 🫶🏼

We'll miss seeing everyone at Crafternoon this month, but we can't wait to welcome you back once we're settled into our new space!

Stay tuned for more updates as the move continues. ✨
