The final episode of #HowItIs season 3 is here and it's all about home. It’s where you kick off your shoes, but it can be lots of places—and mean a lot of different things, too.

For giving season this year we’re looking for your help to turn yet another vacant, boarded property back into living space for our creative community. These transformations are laborious and extensive, but so worth it. Every $5, $10, $15 helps!
