For centuries, the creative has been the bedrock of bringing community together. When art can be made, this allows for the deep themes of being human to be addressed. We believe if Community and Creativity are nurtured, we can become more whole, we can heal. As part of our giving back, we want to foster community leaders making creative community happen.
Recognizing those already nurturing community and creativity by honoring them with a handmade candle.
"All the darkness in the world cannot extinguish the light of a single candle."
- Francis of Assisi
In a time when it feels uncertain, scary, chaotic and divisive - small acts of love and light are of the highest value. There are many wonderful leaders within Spokane doing amazing things to cultivate kindness, community and creativity. The candle is a symbol of the light we all share and how that light can be spread through simple but important gestures. Recipients of a Flamelight Candle are reminded that the work they do matters, it has meaning. It is a little way of encouraging those doing good works from burning out. Candles are made from potters in Spokane (KJ Pottery and One 11 Ceramics and local candle makers using the most natural ingredients.
