What's Next for the Soul Box Project

 

We are in the process of planning an effective way for activists to nimbly use and share the Soul Box panels and other resources without the time, expense, and environmental impact of repetitive shipping.

For the past five years The Soul Box Project has been steadily growing from our home base in Portland, Oregon, while gaining national attention. In October 2021 we staged a massive exhibit on the National Mall in Washington, D.C., to influence the decisions of individuals and policy makers with a visually stunning call to action unlike any other gun violence prevention initiative. 

Much smaller displays are also effective when initiated by organizations, groups, or individuals committed to raising awareness of the U.S. gunfire epidemic and helping those seeking solace with hands-on participation through art-making.

To increase nationwide engagement we plan to disburse portions of The Soul Box Project to those who can actively utilize the panels and other options. For entities able to specify appropriate long-term use, we are willing to distribute existing Soul Box Project materials at a shared cost, or possibly no cost – including ready-made Soul Box display panels, signage, kits for creating additional panels, backpacks, etc. The Project is inherently creative, and we encourage any appropriate use of Soul Boxes. We believe sharing the Project in this way will allow more people to see and feel the complexity of the U.S. gunfire epidemic and respond with deeper understanding.

By joining us, participating entities would become an extension of Soul Box Project USA with inclusion on our website and in national publicity outreach. We would ask affiliates to honor the Project's mission, participate in social media, and agree to virtually come together, perhaps quarterly, to report how the materials have been used and share ideas with one another. 

We are in the process of developing a structure for this new phase and welcome inquiries from those interested in participating. 

Look for an update on the specifics of this outreach in our September newsletter.
