Every minute counts.

An intentional, artful, and healing experience.

Our event will expand into three intentional spaces: Cultivate, Centered, and Creativity.

In each room, you will have the opportunity to contribute to a community activation.

Cultivate

Cultivate nature into your life with our vertical garden.

Hannah will facilitate a community vertical garden project.

Throughout the course of the event, you are invited to participate in planting, propagating, and adding to the community garden.

Hannah teaches accessible and cost-effective ways to create sustainable gardens for your home. Her garden designs prioritize the use of native, food-producing, and drought-tolerant plants.

Create a vertical garden filled with herbs, edible plants, and more.

The Optimist Collective

Centered

Feel centered entering this holiday season.
 
Join us in a moment dedicated to intention setting as we create a community wishing tree.
 
Optimists are believers of hope with an attitude centered in the good – what is good in our present and a conscious focus on the good to come in the future. The Optimist Collective is a group of individuals that share this common interest and work together towards the purpose of a more hopeful world.
 
In this experience, you are invited to take a moment to pause for inward reflection and add your intention to the Wishing Tree – which symbolizes our shared intentions as we move into the holidays.

Creativity

Explore your creativity through our community mural.
 
Jess (Art N’ Flow) of Martha Street Art Night will design and sketch the mural prior to the event. They will facilitate the community mural in a “color by number” format.
 
Pick a color, color your section, and contribute to our campaign.
 
The mural will be donated to Homeless Children’s Network and prints of the completed mural will be sold to continue fundraising.
Martha Street Art

Founded by Jessica Gutierrez, Martha Street Art Night was designed to create space where all people can come share their art with others and connect with creatives from the diverse cultural city of San Jose. Specifically, Martha Street aims to be an inclusive and opportunistic space for the groups that are typically marginalized in the art world (e.g. people of color, womxn, LGBTQ+ folx, and those who have never received an education in art).

Community partner collaborators

We are excited to partner with the Homeless Children’s Network to raise funds for the homeless children of San Francisco. HCN empowers children, youth, and families toward a brighter future by decreasing the trauma of homelessness and domestic violence.

They provide families with resources to raise healthy, stable, and emotionally independent children. HCN helps children and families address the root traumas that shaped their worldviews, explore healthier perspectives, and learn practical non-violent skill sets for managing stress. 

Their services include trauma-informed mental health care, therapeutic interventions, and parent education.

What will my donation fund?

Your donation will help fund the Homeless Children’s Network Art & Play Therapy programs. These programs are for children who are currently experiencing homelessness or have lived experience with homelessness resulting in trauma. Experiencing homelessness at a young age can interfere with academic success and the ability to deal with stress, conflict, and painful emotions. 

HCN therapists use creative techniques for enhancing verbalization, promoting coping abilities, encouraging self-expression, and helping children to articulate conflicting emotions. The techniques include storytelling, art, games, toys, and group play.

Other HCN programs

Ma’at Program: 
Mental health and wellness support for African American families. The approach utilizes a supportive holistic therapeutic community.
 
Mental Health Therapy: 
Mental health services and case management for homeless children, youth, and their families or guardians, including transition-age youth and young people from the LGBTQQI community. 
 
Youth Leadership: 
Positive leadership opportunities for displaced kids. Activities include group and individual outreach to service agencies, monthly leadership activities, and administering a needs assessment survey.
 
Early Childhood Mental Health Consultation: 
A collaborative effort between a mental health clinician and care providers of young children (0-5) with the goal to recognize, interpret, and support the emotional and behavioral health care needs of the children and their families.
