The Shop made objects for the entire Amache community, the many administrative units, the schools (theater and graduation programs, covers to school handbooks, tickets for games), fire department (fire prevention week), and promotional materials (shared with visitors and sent to outsiders). They also made posters to welcome transfers from other centers, including those from Tule Lake (California) and Jerome (Arkansas).
