Being a part of the community is important to us. One of Tucson’s most embraced events is the All Souls Procession. Everyone is welcome to join in the many activities, workshops and exhibitions that lead up the the Procession itself. The Gloo Factory participates by screen printing the official All Souls t-shirts, which help raise funds for the event. The All Souls Procession is organized by Many Mouths One Stomach.
Friends of Pima County Public Library visit the Gloo Factory and learn how to screen print tshirts that they will wear in the 2011 All Souls Procession. The Friends of the PCPL is a non-profit organization in existence since 1969 and helps support the library system by raising funds. It is a community effort to promote literacy, the love of books and library programming.
