We can’t change the world alone.

A publication. Reading groups. Writing in public. Workshops. Sing-alongs. Food.

We are a loosely held but boldly declared community of people dedicated to strengthening our capacity for joyful resistance through these activities.

Our goal is to build resilience and the capacity for change—inner and outer—to help us shift our shared world in a better direction.

It starts with stories

JOY the Zine was published launched in fall 2023, though the idea for it began several years earlier. Issues come out three times a year, and share stories of people who are doing work that brings them happiness while also insisting on a different kind of world. We love to receive stories and share the zine with subscribers.
