Founded in 2023, Soft Gather is a series of healing spaces. Utilizing fiber and the vibrant language of color therapy, Black women and gender-expansive people and communities are invited to comfortably gather, reflect, rest, and nurture relationships. Soft Gather is an intentional space that evokes a cohesive sense of mind, body, and spirit through art. Soft Gather is the artist’s life's work.

  • The Bloom Collective provides holistic care along the preconception, pregnancy, and postpartum journey. This Soft Gather space is inspired by being held, circular process of life, connection to the land, the earth’s nourishment, and honoring of the grand midwives.

    Throughout Black Maternal Health Week 2024, Soft Gather will be an accessible healing space open to the community. Through the colors and textures, it is an exciting, beautiful experience that aligns with how they want their community to feel—light and at peace. People gather, and build community through conversation, rest, play, and release. Soft Gather provides the space for them to do these things in a new, comfortable, and inspiring way.

    Special thank you to the Rubys Artist Grants, Neighborhood Fiber Company, and Tuft the World.
