THE ORIGINAL LOGO
Angie’s Heart
Our friend Angie, whose parents Leo and Caro run an anarchist t-shirt and design shop in Bogotá, Colombia, designed this heart when she was 17. Liza and I have always loved this design and I asked Angie if I can use it for the event logo. She was happy to share! I think Liza would be overjoyed that this sprouting heart designed by Angie was incorporated into our logo. ~~Again, community power!~~
