You can bring along your own crocheting supplies or delve into our treasure trove of craft supplies here at Makerspace, to either create rainbow crocheted love heart, or if fiber craft isn't your thing rock art resources are available.
Hearts of Pride is about spreading the ideals of love, positivity, inclusion & acceptance. In hopes of reaching the more isolated and vulnerable in our community.
For those who prefer crocheting from the comfort of home, mobile kits can be selected in the checkout and picked up from Makerspace.
Parallel play during in person workshops welcomed for our neurodivergent friends.
The goal is to create 178 hearts that will become part of a massive love bombing and Pride Picnic at a yet to be disclosed location on Saturday 1st June 2024.
Mobile kits with yarn & heart pattern available for those with no or limited access. Contact danielle.bickford@mnccc.edu.au for further info.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF OUR ELDERS
We pay our respects to those amongst the lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, and intersex communities who have worked to support the improved health and wellbeing of their peers, children, families, friends, and country. We honour the elders in the diverse communities of which we are a part and we celebrate the extraordinary diversity of people's bodies, genders, sexualities, and relationships that they represent.
