We were thrilled to present our framework at the @queerhousingsummit a couple of weeks ago ~~ we believe that this could be one tool to help design more joy centered places, spaces, policies, and programs. Some of you asked to be able to look back at the slides. We’ll share some here & the full presentation on our website soon!
🪩Let us know: would you like to hear more about the Joy Access framework & how we imagine it could transformative?
We know some of you are visual learners. 😉 We’re experimenting with some visuals to help you get the big picture. ☁️ ☀️ Tell us, where do you find yourself on the chart? 🤔

JoyCore & AI — why we take an ecosystem approach & what that really means. We’re grateful to have spent the last month or so listening to all of you & we’re inspired to add our voice to the discourse. Love ya’ll.
Sun prints + open-ended art & bubble play. We’re excited for another monthly gathering centered in community & making. This is a free, intergenerational space. See you there.
