“Nicholas Konert believes spreading love is more important than ever. So he made it his mission.”
Spread Love Project by Nicholas Konert was born to serve as an iconic reminder for people everywhere to spread love without restriction, reason, or reward.
A reflection of Nicholas’ own colorful and contagious spirit, Spread Love Project started simply on the streets of New York—with Nicholas personally handing out his heart stickers to people and places—before gaining major momentum and media attention.
Today, the love has spread around the world—inspiring a line of merchandise, partnerships with West Elm, Soho House, Callen-Lorde, and a massive placement in Times Square—becoming a global symbol for compassionate causes, collaborations, communities, and the love that we all share.
