Chez Fab Arts and Community Project: THE CHURCH OF MAKE AND DO AT WONDERGROUND

THE CHURCH OF MAKE AND DO: Planetarium Presentation

Thank you for your interest in contributing to an experience of profound transformation and healing.

We invite all forms of creative expression to be part of this journey. Whether it’s music, words, video, visual art, dance, sculpture, or any other medium, your voice is welcome here.

The culmination of this collaborative journey will be a Planetarium Presentation at the Louisiana Art and Science Museum, with the possibility of sharing this experience with other planetariums.

What we are creating is not just a display of art, but a sacred space—a visual and audio collage, woven together like a patchwork quilt, that tells a story of healing, growth, and liberation. This work will express the collective power of creativity to face and transform life's most profound challenges.

Whether you wish to remain anonymous or share your name, your contribution will be celebrated. Your work will be part of a collective that strives to make the unseen visible, the unspoken heard, and the healing journey shared.

Project Questionnaire:

These questions are meant to be a source of inspiration, not simply a questionnaire to fill out. They are here to guide the creation of art, music, performance, or any creative form you choose to submit. Let these prompts ignite your soul, helping you tap into the deep, transformative power of your experiences. There is no wrong way to approach this. If you prefer to record your thoughts in an audio file, you are welcome to send it. If the prompts move you to create a poem, painting, dance, animation, video, or another expression of your creativity, you can submit that too. Whether your work is literal or interpretive, follow what speaks to you most.

As you reflect, remember: The more personal the story, the more universal its impact. I encourage you to reach deep into your heart and share what truly moves you. Your truth is the catalyst for healing.

What’s one thing you wish people knew about your struggles, but you’ve been too afraid to share?
What fear do you carry that feels too heavy to hold alone? What would it take to let go or share it?
