PDX Women's Empathy Network

Portland, OR

Do you feel isolated and alone with pain or illness? Or do you just wish you had a friend you could call on, anytime of the day or night? Do you bemoan the fact that people text or email these days, but they rarely are able to drop everything and go sit with a sick friend to offer comfort? This empathy group is a network of local women in the Portland, Oregon, area who want to do just that--take care of each other. My goal is for us each to have at least 5 women we can contact at a moment's notice, if we're sick or scared or just need a friend, who will offer genuine compassion. I suffer from chronic pain and illness, and I have as much need to give as to receive such care. Come join our growing community of nurturing, caring women!

International Mural by Mail Network

Portland, OR

The International Mural by Mail is a project designed to give artists the opportunity to network and communicate visually with other artists on a global scale. The goal is to leave our viewers from far and near with a lasting cultural experience and important insights into other worldly places and institutions. We have initiated a series of large-scale murals, created jointly by artists of diverse cultural backgrounds and artistic persuasions, in a collaborative exchange conducted entirely by mail. On one end, a mural is completed by the participating international artist, on the other end another mural is completed by local Portland artist. Two murals are created. Full scale mock-up drawings are mailed between collaborating artists. Each begins sketching images on a large blank piece of paper (the cartoon) to be mailed to their partner, who in turn responds by adding elements of their own. This exchange will continue until an artist determines a composition complete, and thereupon creates a finished painting based on the drawing that has been exchanged.
