About the project…

  • We make art to express our love and support for our fellow community members. The crocheted heart serves as the universal symbol “threading” all of us together, because we are better together.

  • Involves grassroots, community-based, community-driven arts projects focused on supporting vulnerable communities through universal symbols of love and care.

  • Rooted in the art of crochet; a nervous-system regulating, thought-soothing, action oriented, hands-on practice for turbulent times.

  • Founded on the Values:

  • Anchored in liberation justice ethos and egalitarianism.

  • Installed in the community by community members for community members.

  • Founded by Cydney Peterson MA, ATR-P, LPC-IT and sustained by a community of artists, compassionate community care advocates, mutual aid providers and more!
