Our Mission
“Stitching communities together with a needle of knowledge and a thread of talent”

L.I.F.T was created by the late John “Dolo Deyo Ello” Ragin and his wife Mellodye “Sweets” Green-Ragin as an outreach program for students ages 7 to 17 who may be faced with pressure from their peers. Sweets and Dolo saw the void in that area during their own childhood and wanted to offer a positive way to fill idle time.

The program is designed to be an outreach, as well as an outlet, for youth and young adults interested in different aspects of the entertainment industry, including, music, film, recording, acting, photography, videography, song writing, modeling, music production, studio engineering and more!

My one-of-a-kind T-shirt and memory quilts elevate treasured memories into heirloom-quality textile art. Whether displayed as a striking wall hanging or used as a cozy throw, each piece captures years of experiences in luxurious, lasting form.

Each quilt becomes a tangible embrace—soft, warm, and filled with the stories that create full and joyful lives.

Tracie Cheng’s paintings resemble nature, fractals, patterns and forms, inspired by all the incredible and regular things around us.

She has collaborated extensively with museums, galleries, theaters, independent art venues, and nonprofits organizations in the Tristate area and beyond. When she was a child, her dream was to have magic powers. Growing up she learned that magic can be found in small acts of kindness, and that good fairytales never age. Now her artwork often incorporates symbolic allusions to myths, fairytales, the rhythms of nature and life cycles. She hopes it can inspire viewers to see magic, beauty and possibilities all around.
