Your exObjects 2024

What’s happening this year?

By choosing an object associated with someone or something we love, we can reconnect.

Creative expression can lead to action, for example on climate change, or finding a fresh understanding of ourselves and others.

Your new exObject contributions will be stitched together as 2024 rolls on.
