We are finally winding up the Loving Earth Project. the Steering Group initially agreed to hold the project until the end of 2023, but we continued to support exhibitions and accept new panels for the online gallery for another two years due to popular demand.

We are delighted that a number of groups are keen to continue the project in their own way, offering exhibitions, working with schools, churches and community groups or campaigns.  These are listed on our Exhibitions page.  If you would like to borrow some of the panels, please contact them directly.

The Quaker Arts Network continues to hold copyright of Loiving Earth panels, jointly with the panel-makers and is pleased for them to be used for non-commercial purposes., provided that Loving Earth Project/Quaker Arts Network are acknowledged.

WHAT HAPPENED NEXT FOR YOU?

The initial aim of the Loving Earth Project was to help people engage more deeply with climate crisis inspired by love and without becoming overwhelmed.

It has grown  far beyond our initial hopes, with lots of exhibitions and workshops, over 500 textile art panels made, books, talks and more. The  steering group would like to learn more about how it has influenced people and inspired action , whether for panel makers or for others.   How has it been helpful?  What can we learn from it?

We’d love to hear your experience,  whether you made a panel, visited an exhibition, organised an event, read a book, or just browsed our website.  We  hope to hear from a wide variety of people, by completing our short survey , by 20th February 2024.   

If you’d like to tell us more about your story in a different format (eg video, email) , you are welcome to email us at Lovingearthproject@gmail.com .
