Kaleidoscope of Love

Kaleidoscope of Love is a celebration of you; of Minneapolis and Saint Paul; of neighbors who check in, deliver groceries, shovel sidewalks, walk kids to school and friends to work, sing, march, and offer comfort and care. We invite you to celebrate our city at Powderhorn Park in South Minneapolis to lift that spirit of community into the sky, forming a living butterfly in a joyful, shimmering mosaic of color, co-created by you, your neighbors, family and friends.

Let this be our collective GRAND LOVE POEM to our community!

This inspiring human-powered mosaic will be live-streamed and documented from above by artist-managed drones. The unique gathering of participants and audience members offers an opportunity for neighbors from the region to connect, to heal and to persist with pride, strength and dignity as a community. The Kaleidoscope of Love documentation will send a powerful message to the rest of the nation—and the world—that Minnesotans value beauty, compassion and communal care, and reject the continuing Federal atrocities that have rendered lasting harm to our communities. This celebration of our resilience and the power of public art will sustain attention on what matters most now. The pursuit of justice is far from over.

Kaleidoscope of Love is being formed under the tent of Big Animal Productions in collaboration with associated artists and community members. Art holds presence and provides a cultural lifeline, transforming our feelings of fear, despair and rage into compassionate action. We believe our collective care for each other, as neighbors, is what will triumph, in the end, over the hatred and violence.
