Library EventWholesome Social Media

Wouldn't you like to know more life-giving, wholesome corners of the internet? Most of the internet may be a soul-sucking void, but there are groups and accounts that truly embody the intent of social media: to connect rather than isolate, and to uplift rather than spark fights and trolling.

But how to find these? We did it for you! Join us on Zoom for a tour of the best wholesome & cozy accounts to follow and groups to join, focusing on authentic, independent content (but not emotionally-manipulative, polished "heartwarming" drivel).

Examples:

• View From My Window (Facebook group)
• Humans of New York (Facebook and Instagram account)
• chloebensinger (Instagram account with stopmotion videos of a felted wool moth going about daily life)

Yes, we're jaded about the internet too, so let's see if we can correct that!

Instructor: Stacey McKim (with input from other ICPL staff!)
