    Handmade Selves is an exhibition of senior projects created by the 2024 graduating class of the Pasadena Waldorf High School.

    Works on display include a playable hand- built electric guitar, garments made from living plants, a choreography about emotions, photorealistic drawings of hands, time lapse footage of fungal growth, a piano composition about Hiroshima and more.
