SOFT VIBRANT JOY FOR ALL.
I created Rural Urban Pride Bears to explore my own identity, my relationship to the rural and the urban, and to share soft joy with people of all ages. I'm soooo excited to be releasing Rural Urban Pride Bear June 2023 from my handmade studio THECOLORG: Plushies. Each bear is unique and "made to order."
During the month of June 2023, I will be donating $10 from each bear sale to the LGBT Center of Central PA to help fund services for the LGBTQIA+ community in Central PA. Along with expressing my own vibrant queer joy through making these bears, supporting Rural/Urban queer communities though this project is vital.
As a feminine queer person who grew up in a very religious small town in rural PA, I understand all too well that accessibility to LGBTQIA+ programs and resources can be scarce or non-existent in many rural areas. The LGBT Center of Central PA, located in Harrisburg, PA serves over 2,000 people regionally each year providing support and resources for both youth and adults. Consider investing in handmade treasured items (and my subsequent joy of making them!) while also supporting the Central PA LGBTQIA+ community.
*Pre-Orders will be available through June 30th, and bears will begin to be shipped out in July.
