Bird Collision in the Anthropocene Workshop

"Bird Collision in the Anthropocene is a national nonprofit project that uses art + community gatherings to engage the public in addressing the leading cause of bird mortality in the U.S. - bird building collisions.
At hundreds of public art workshops across the U.S. and Canada, we are crowdsourcing the handcrafting of 10,836 bird sculptures, to replicate the exact number of birds that were found by the Chicago Bird Collision Monitors in Chicago in 2023 after hitting glass. These fabric artworks will be sewn into a huge 300-foot-long 'carpet' of birds that will become a travelling art installation, to raise awareness about the toll of building collisions on local bird populations.
The goal?? To inspire a transformation in how people relate to birds - to ensure that our human-built spaces are welcoming places for birds and people. We reconnect people to the love of handcrafting in community and save bird lives - one bird at a time."
