Hi I ordered the spring inspiration issue and did not successfully download it. Could you please allow me to re-download it?
Eight days down, five to go…bids have stalled a bit. Check out the almost 4 dozen items added in the last day and today’s featured categories—camps and travel—to help us out of our slump: bit.ly/lsa20newlyadded • bit.ly/lsa20camps • bit.ly/lsa20travel Want that summer camp or travel experience, but worried you won't be able to use it? We understand...take comfort in risk-free bidding; if you win a certificate that you can't use because the business has been affected by COVID-19 (e.g., camp, class, or tour unable to operate), contact us by September 30, 2020 for a full refund. We won’t let COVID-19 stop us from funding our school’s programs. Support our auction today by bidding if you can. Every little BID makes a difference.

Curious Jane had outgrown their original Squarespace website and needed a new customized site that could better reflect the fun, silliness and craftiness of their brand. For too long, Curious Jane had been promoting two separate entities—Curious Jane the magazine, and Curious Jane the camp. The task: create a new customized site that could better reflect the fun, silliness and craftiness of their brand. Read more on how we tackled this re-design >>> https://amyjacobus.marketing/project/curious-jane/

We just added a new afterschool class! "Maker Mashup" with Curious Jane will join our Wednesday line-up of afterschool enrichments from Jan 8 - Feb 26. "Maker Mashup" is active, creative and totally DIY! There’s a different project (or 2!) each week… we’ll dip into miniature scenes, printed cards + posters, room decorations, take-home games, creative creatures, spy science decoders, detective work, and LED light-ups. We bring a little something from each of the areas Curious Jane is built on –– science + design + engineering –– in colorful, creative projects. Superfun!

We are excited to welcome Curious Jane Summer Camp to Portfolio School! Curious Jane is a wonderful program that offers "opportunities for girls to be creative and inventive and to build confidence through making things!" Curious Jane is the one of our summer camp program partners. We hope you will join Curious Jane in Tribeca this summer.
This summer, Sofia had a stronger voice about the adventures she was interested in having. ☀️We’ve always prioritized the summer months to focus on physical therapy for functional gains, since we aren’t juggling school and extracurricular activities. As she gets older, our girl has very clear opinions about the balance she wants between the work and play. And I love that s***k! She’s doing a two-week mini intensive (3 hours/day) at Starfish Therapies — and this team knows how to make work feel like play! Even when she’s tired after the session, she’s smiling. After this camp, it’s on to Curious Jane in San Francisco ❤️ Happy Summer, everyone! . #physicaltherapy #ittakesavillage #yesshecan #cpwarrior #keepgoing #nevergiveup #workhard #happysummer #balance #summercamp
