    Recipient Strategic Growth Grant

    The Bridges Project was made possible in part by the Strategic Growth Grant.
    This funding has enabled the modular design of our flagship exhibit—transforming it into a fully curated, traveling experience that expands access and brings collective healing into communities across Charlotte and beyond. The flagship installation can now be broken down into up to 12 smaller bridge installations, extending its reach and impact across multiple sites.

    Building a bridge, in my opinion, is a symbolic gesture, linked with the needs of people who cross over it, and with the idea of overcoming or surmounting obstacles. It helps to shape our daily lives and becomes a vital experience for all the people who use it.

    Moving us Toward a Culture of Collective Healing

    Our goal is to show what's possible when healing is something we do together.

     This is our journey through the human condition where we are in the midst of a global humanitarian crisis, where over 750,000 people die by suicide each year. 


    Our founder, artist and Reiki Master Amy Campbell, created The Bridges Project as a  response to this crisis. 

     "It is my hope that when you leave the Bridges Exhibit you should know, see and feel how much you are needed. How your thread, your contribution no matter how small, is a connection that builds a bridge that can save a persons life and light the way to collective wellness."

    The Bridges Party Launched in May 2025

    The Bridges Project is a citywide healing-arts and suicide-awareness campaign that uses stories and string to model the architecture of connection. Explore the inaugural program that launched this movement and shows how we turn triggers into triumphs, stories into string, and bridges into symbols of hope.

    Turning Bridges into Symbols of Hope

    The Bridges Project

    A Collective Healing Exhibit Built Through Story, Art & Connection
     

    Crossing the hardest moments shouldn’t be something we do alone.

    Why the Bridge Exists

    Over 230 people die by suicide every day in the U.S.
    More still live in silence, stigma, and emotional overwhelm.


    We built The Bridges Project because the systems meant to hold us are collapsing—and because connection is the one thing proven to save lives.


    The Bridges Project is a year-long, kinetic suicide-awareness campaign and traveling interactive exhibit that turns community-woven looms into a large, living string art bridge of hope.


    The Bridge brings together art, storytelling, education, and the healing arts to help people feel seen, heard, and less alone.

    The Power of Collective Healing

    By the time the bridge is complete, our hope is to create 700,000 moments of connection— 

    our Bridge will be made up of over 700,000 strings, one for every life lost to suicide last year. 


    A reminder that we are just one connection away from wellness and that healing is something we build together.
