Summary/Artist Statement
The Heartstopper Project is a Netflix experience centered around the book/Netflix series Heartstopper. The experience will provide fans of the show with an immersive experience based around the show sets, similar to previous Netflix experiences for series such as Stranger Things, while also including resources for the queer community and serving as a space to uplift queer voices and celebrate their joy. Seeing as Heartstopper is a series geared towards younger audiences, it is the perfect choice for a safe experience centered around queer identities. Its family friendly, joyful approach to the queer perspective of coming of age makes it a positive source of representation in media that deserves more attention.
