This marks one year of the Poetry Gumball Machine project and I want to apply the care needed to each machine to make sure they are serving the community well and shooting a documentary on how the poetry gumball machines are interacting with the community and how people are investing in their mental health.

This requires

$500 to retouch paint and perform maintenance on each poetry gumball machine as needed

$500 to refill each gumball with buttons

$2000 for equipment and food for production team to film

Any amount helps toward the goal of making mental health, poetry, art and more importantly the story of folx accesible. View the video below to get the idea of the art and purpose of the poetry gumball machine.
