ST. LOUIS, Sept. 3, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Build-A-Bear Workshop announced today that it will be hosting a livestreaming event to connect people around the world in celebration of National Teddy Bear Day and the power of teddy bear hugs.  From neighborhood teddy bear hunts to hugs sent to a loved one, teddy bears have played an important role in keeping people connected this year.

"2020 has been an unusual year and we know that many people have been separated from loved ones.  Teddy bears have a unique ability to communicate happiness, celebration, and love and are the perfect way to share a hug with someone from afar." said President and CEO, Sharon Price John.
