At Grandview Park, October 1 2015
True Connect was a free community service held on two occasions at two public venues; its purpose was to invite passers-by to write a note or letter to someone in their life and to have chats about social isolation/connection or whatever else people wanted to talk about.
I had my typewriter, note paper and envelopes, and some art supplies. People dictated a letter to me, I typed it, and mailed it for them on the same day.
