More about the Zone:

The Zone of Authenticity is radically playful participatory art and originally an ArtPrize-winning, immersive art installation and deck of affirmation & authentic connection cards (by Whitney Dawn Pyles & Camille Newsom) designed to meet an increasingly essential need for honest, empathetic, compassionate, human connection (with ourselves and one another).
