Our impact grows with shared effort. 

In April 2024, Eleanor and Starsha founded Collective Learning Lab, combining their love for Chicago, art, ecology, prairie grass, teaching, and social justice. Together as educator and artist, they created an organization that is rooted in partnership and community.
