From the desk of Michelle Joni and the Permagiculture Society -

Public transportation can be our public transformation!

Every day 2.4 million people take the subway.

What if that subway ride was more than just a means of commuting, but a vehicle for connection and creative inspiration?

We need to create a world and a subway system where people have the chance to get their connection and joy and other needs met while on their commute.

What if the caboose of every train was reserved and known to be the place you can go to connect? To play music? To strike up a conversation with a new friend?

The mental health crisis is out of control. One of the main things we need is to make it easier for people to connect and feel like they are a part of something.

Consider a caboose full of:

workshops,

music and dancing,

entertainment,

connection games,

conversation prompts,

costuming,

and whatever your can conceptualize.

The subway can be a place for self expression and safety.

Let's work together to create a more inclusive subway - a new direction while you head in the direction of your travels.

Sign our petition and let's show the MTA how much magic there can be on the subways!
