We created this series of cards to bring a little more light, warmth, and hope to this winter.

ABOUT THE PROJECT

Where Dreams Are Born – a New Year’s card series about people, connection, and those little moments that make winter feel warm.
Each illustration is a vision of our dream for the cities we love: Kyiv, Yerevan, Moscow, Almaty, Tbilisi, Minsk, and other places that will always have a piece of our hearts.
Many of us had to leave them against our will. But one day we’ll come back—to a new era where we can be ourselves and live without fear.

We created these cards to remind everyone that change starts with small acts:
a kind word, a letter, a postcard that lands in someone’s hands exactly when they need it most.
These are illustrations of the future we believe in.

WHY THIS MATTERS

For many LGBTQ+ people, winter can feel especially heavy—distance, loneliness, anxiety, and the ache of not having a safe home close by hit harder than ever.

A postcard can become:

A way to say “I’m here for you”
A tiny spark of light when everything else feels dark
A quiet reminder that dreams are still possible
A gesture that warms more than it seems

Change starts with a dream. And a dream can start with a postcard – with an illustration that makes “someday” feel a little closer.
