Shy offerings for a master storyteller

About This Project

This Tapestry is for fans of Leonard Cohen to express what the music and the man mean to them. Someone asked me, "do you mean you want them to write love letters to Cohen?"

Well, I suppose I do.

If we have enough participation, Weeva will create a hardcopy book and simply send it to him, courtesy of all of us.
