Finding Home Away From Home: A Military Family Storytelling Project

What does home mean when life takes you somewhere new?

Join the Don’t Worry Willy Foundation for Finding Home Away From Home, a special edition of our Quiet Create Club celebrating the stories, experiences, and connections that shape military family life as part of America’s 250th anniversary.

📅 Monday, November 16, 2026
⏰ 6:00 PM – 8:00 PM
📍 Belle Chasse Library | 8442 LA-23, Belle Chasse, LA

Our take-home storytelling station will be available throughout November, inviting military-connected families, and community members, to share their stories, reflect on what home means to them, and contribute to a collective celebration of the military family experience.

Then, join us on November 16 for a free, special evening of storytelling, creativity, and community! We’ll share stories, create together, and connect with others who understand the unique experience of finding home wherever military life takes us.

Whether you’re an active-duty family, a veteran family, a military spouse, or someone who has been impacted by your military connected neighbors, there’s a place for you in this story. Everyone is welcome and encouraged to attend!

Come as you are. Bring your story. Leave a little more connected. We can’t wait to create, share, and grow joy with you!
