A drawing of a toad sitting in a living room looking sad that says “feel like you’re just sitting around” A drawing of the sad toad looking out the window seeing people protesting for their rights, rain falling, and an upside down US flag on fire. The picture says “watching the world and peoples rights burn?” A drawing of the same toad in the living room having an epiphany. It holds a crochet hook and has a ball of yarn next to it. The picture reads “join the craftivist movement!” Drawing that says “support the CVNT Collective” then “*knit*crochet*join*follow*share*donate*”

“[F]ighting back can feel impossible. But it can begin in very small ways. It can begin by taking the time to read another person’s words fully. It can begin by taking a moment to look at a painting on a wall.”
We Need the Arts Now More than Ever
With the Trump administration cutting grants to the National Endowment for the Arts, a crucial lifeline is being lost.

As philosophized by Aristotle, “gentleness [is] a compromise between excessive anger and excessive indifference. A gentle approach doesn’t reject anger but asks us to use it appropriately.” -Sarah Corbett Gentle Craftivism course
#craftivism #embroidery #gentleprotest #craftivist #protest #activism
An embroidery hoop lays in the grass surrounded by pink flowers that have fallen from a tree. “TRUE STRENGTH LIES IN GENTLENESS” is embroidered in the middle of the light pink fabric with credit for the quote given to Aristotle at the bottom. Green embroidered leaves and vines surround the words, and the top says CVNT in reference to The CVNT Collective, a craftivism nonprofit using the concept of gentle protest in their pursuit to build community, raise funds to donate to other nonprofits, and foster hope amidst political destabilization.

Fiber arts don’t have to be soft and passive- they can make a statement. And if we all make a statement together, they might even make some real change.

We’re an official nonprofit!!! Getting closer to raising funds to donate to other nonprofits 💖
#nonprofit #kindness #good
Photo announces that the CVNT collective is now an official nonprofit incorporated in the state of Michigan. It adds that the collectives next step is to file for federal tax exemption so donations to them will be tax writeoffs.

#democracy #oligarchy #martiallaw #unitedstates #usa
There is a search bar at the top to make it look like someone is googling “what do people mean when they say the US is at risk of becoming an oligarchy?” Below that is a comparison of oligarchy and democracy highlighting that oligarchy is when a small group of people are in control whereas democracy is when the people have the power often through voting and representatives. The photo closes by answering the question in saying “they are discussing how current political maneuvers function to consolidate power into the hands of the extremely wealthy”

One of our collective members is giving out this hand knit hat to a lucky protester today! The upside down flag symbolizes distress.
#protest #protect #handsoff #CVNTcollective
A square knit hat with an American flag pattern, but the flag is upside down to symbolize distress. The hat is on a mannequin head. The same American flag hat in the process of being knit earlier in the week

It’s never too late to do some good 💜 start here with the collective.

#quote #inspiration #mayaangelou
Photo is of a Maya Angelou quote with a floral border. The quote reads “I am convinced of this: good done anywhere is good done everywhere. For a change, start by speaking to people rather than walking by the Like they’re stones that don’t matter. As long as you’re breathing, it’s never too late to do some good. “
