Meet Stasen’s String Designs, a string art business designed by Keala Stasen. She is a junior at Macomb 185 Schools and is mentored by Kristen Conrad, Make Fit Happen.

Keala started this business because she saw a need for "creativity in my community." Her most valuable lesson from CEO is "to fail is to learn, if you never fail you can never learn."

Check out Keala's string art crafts at the 2024 McDonough County Trade Show at the Spoon River College Community Outreach Center on Tuesday, May 7 from 5:00-7:00 p.m.
