In this in-person session, you'll explore the twin themes of luck and love, just in time for Friday the 13th and Valentine's Day week, by answering a series of playful questions and turning your responses into a one-of-a-kind data visualization. Instead of charts on a screen, you'll visualize your data using iron-on decals, arranging them to tell your own story on a tote bag you'll design and take home. No prior data or design experience needed—just curiosity and a willingness to explore patterns in your everyday life.
