Stone Soup Artist / Activist Collective and Community Resource Center is a collectively owned building where community members are creating a space that meets and honors their needs. Stone Soup provides space for community meetings, musical and theatrical shows, an art gallery, a kitchen for Food Not Bombs and community dinners, The Firecracker lending library, affordable housing, Earn a Bike, the Stone Soup School, Worcester Independent Media Center, EPOCA and other grassroots organizations. Our vision is a community center that belongs to and meets the needs of the Main South Neighborhood of Worcester, MA. Inspired by principles of inclusion, collective participation, and universal affordability, we will be an example of how creative community development of and for the people can stimulate local economies without resorting to gentrification.
