Living In Loving Community
We all desearve the best life we can live. That is the goal this non-profit strives to create. A community of loving, helpful citizens. Make the world a better place for us all to live.
The Community House Network, NFP was made to heal. To connect instead of hide in fear and dread. As a group we're committed to helping create more love. So we can all live our best lives, and live in a neigborhood. For each of us, that may look quite differently. We honor and respect each member of our community.
A healthy community arises from healthy connections. And healthy connections form when we know who we are. When each of us is healthy in our own body, mind, and spirit. This is the way we can truly heal the world, one person at a time.
Since the start of the Community House the world is more devisive. Through Covid, and political disagreement, many of us are struggling to find the joy and peace that we once had, or maybe only dreamed of. Community is needed now more than ever.
We believe the world is evolving towards the good. We believe our success is tied to our collective connection to one another and to the whole. That our ultimate success is the goal that depends on unity.
Competition does not serve us any more. We have entered the time of unity and cooperation. The Community House firmly believes we must all come together, if we are going to make it through the next phase of humanity.
We are currently focused on uplifting those around us. We believe creativity and self-expression are avenues, for enhancing self-awareness and self-realization. We are working to help our community heal from trauma, and for each member to realize their Truth and share their gifts.

THE HISTORY OF THE ART GARAGE
The Art Garage was the start of it all. It began with the energy of the neighborhood youth. They came to the garage, and I held the space for them to explore, play and connect with each other. To learn more about our origins, visit our original Art Garage website here.

From those humble beginnings, the Community House Network, NFP emerged in 2020. We expanded, creating a space for healing for our local community with a focus on those with the highest needs. The Chrysalis House provided transitional housing for women recovering from addiction. Our Community House at 2223 N. Sheridan hosted recovery meetings, yoga, youth programming, women's groups, and more. We worked with the Midwest Food Bank and created a pantry, often delivering food to those who could not leave their houses.
Our youth programming evolved and formalized into the Ambassadors of Kindness character development program and the Conceptual Math Wizards. In 2025 we were able to extend our programming outside of our neighborhood and provided the Conceptual Math Wizards and Ambassadors of Kindness programs to the Dream Center as always free of charge.
This year we have moved to AnaPrana Healing and Yoga Studio located at 1617 Valle Vista Blvd, Pekin, IL 61554. This space has opened up new opportunities for creative collaboration. Our goal is to create a powerful connected, loving community of creative people of all ages. It will not be the academics or the politicians who change the world, it will be the Artists.
Come be a part of creative community and help uplift our world.
