GREETINGS FROM STREET LARK
Hi! My name is Carly, owner of Street Lark. There are many reasons why I decided to launch Street Lark. But I think what matters most is the reason why I believe in it.
French novelist, Marcel Proust, once wrote “the real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes but in having new eyes, to behold the universe through the eyes of another, of a hundred others, to behold the hundred universes that each of them beholds.”
The goal of Street Lark is to tell the different stories of Pittsburgh(ers), so people can behold the city through the eyes of another, of a hundred others, to behold the hundred Pittsburghs that each of them beholds.
Street Lark's Values
Street Lark is passionate about connecting community through storytelling, a practice that is rooted in our core values:
-
Learning from the perspective of our neighbors (next door and global), so we can better understand ourselves and those around us
-
Experiencing our surroundings in a new, exciting, and sometimes challenging, way
-
Achieving personal growth by stepping outside of our daily routines and immersing ourselves in a new culture
