Georgetown in Bloom coloring book

2021

This coloring book was Makara's brainchild and together with her friend, Rachel, they produced this book for the Georgetown community. Each illustration has reminders of the historic or iconic images throughout the city. Funding for this project came from Georgetown city itself and various local businesses.
