"Crafting a Better World" is a response to a moment in time when many feel both anxiety and hope. So pick up a needle, a pen, a spatula—anything—and craft the change you want to see in the world.

From the climate crisis, to racism, to gun violence, to attacks on LGBTQ+ rights, the list of issues facing the world goes on, and it’s natural to feel anxious about the state of our union. 

"Crafting a Better World" is a new kind of call to action: a guidebook for combatting fatigue and frustration with the handmade. 

Curated by Diana Weymar, the creator of the Tiny Pricks Project, who knows what it means to meld craft and activism. 

Featuring essays, exclusive profiles of well-known creatives, and projects that readers can create by themselves or with their communities, this book is a means to stay engaged, make stuff, and hold ourselves together as we navigate this uncertain personal and political landscape. With contributions from artists and activists, including:

• Jamie Lee Curtis
• Roz Chast
• Gisele Fetterman
• PEN America
• Nadya Tolokonnikova (founding member, Pussy Riot)
• Guerilla Girls
