Welcome to Lifebook, a transformative experience for adoptees of all ages at Spence-Chapin. For both children ages 6-11 and adults 18+, Lifebook offers a creative journey of self-discovery and identity exploration. Join us for a day of creativity, connection, and celebration of the adoptee experience.
Lifebook is open to adoptees 6-11 who are joined by their parents/guardians at the Spence-Chapin offices. Kids create their “Lifebook” which tells the story of them!
Using art materials, photographs, letters and other memorabilia, kids create a physical book that represents themselves, the important people, places, and things in their life in their own words.
Hosted by Spence-Chapin staff and fellow adoptees, Lifebook is a great event where kids get to meet peers, share their stories, and have a fun creative afternoon!
Adopted People 18+ are invited to participate in an afternoon of creativity, introspection, and structured exploration of their identity and life experiences.
In this adoptee-made and led community-building event, participants will have the chance to create a book that tells their story as it pertains to their lived experiences as adopted people alongside peers. Keep an eye on our events calendar for upcoming dates!
