Community Art Project Goes Global

Lee Tracy is doing something awesome and she calls it World Rivers.

World Rivers is a global collaboration uniting people through the element of water. Individuals from around the world dip white fabric in selected rivers. The fabric pieces are embroidered with the name of the river, location and date and then sewn together into a magnificent curtain. International participants, like rivers flowing to the ocean, join together to form a larger whole. World Rivers reveals a story of water, through the personal experience of many. World Rivers reveals civilization's connection to water while documenting our time in history.

The World Rivers curtain is now 120 feet in length; Lee Tracy's current goal is 200 feet.
