Explore The Shared S(h)elf Project at Thanks-Giving Square, a creative haven designed to rekindle the art of connection in today's isolated world. This interactive installation weaves together crochet, beatbox drumming, origami, and a unique letter-sharing station, and more, each carefully crafted to bridge the gap between strangers and transform the Square into a vibrant epicenter of shared experiences and personal expression. Additionally, a special gift exchange box invites participants to leave something small and take something new, fostering a spirit of generosity and surprise. As visitors engage in these activities, they’re not just crafting and playing—they're contributing to a living mosaic of stories, gifts, and connections. The Shared S(h)elf Project invites you to step in, pause, and contribute to our collective narrative of gratitude and connection, proving that great things happen in small spaces!
