Valentines will be sent out at the beginning of February so that they

in the second half of the month.) Respecting the privacy of receipts,
envelopes will bear the recipients address without additional information.

Please note that the valentines are for women living with HIV only.  We can

Since 2015, artists, activists and HIV-positive women have come together
for LOVE POSITIVE WOMEN paper making workshops
<https://visualaids.org/events/detail/love-positive-women-valentine-making-workshops>
to
show their love and support for women living with HIV. Hosted at Dieu
Donné's paper making studios, the program produces hundreds of unique
handmade paper Valentines cards that are mailed to women living with HIV
around the world in time for Valentine's Day. These workshops are
collaboratively produced with the Fire Island Artist Residency and Dieu
Donné.

LOVE POSITIVE WOMEN
<http://visualaids.org/projects/detail/love-positive-women> is an
international series of events that uses Valentines Day as a backdrop,
creating a platform for individuals and communities to engage in public and
private acts of love and caring for women living with HIV. Working from a
place of strength, LPW focuses on the idea of interconnectedness,
relationship building, loving oneself and loving ones community. LOVE
POSITIVE WOMEN is an ongoing project established by Visual AIDS artist
member Jessica Whitbread
<https://www.visualaids.org/artists/detail/jessica-whitbread> in 2013.


Warmly,
Jessica and the Love Positive Women Team!
