Read about how Northeast Ohio Rocks! started here

Northeast Ohio Rocks! is the largest rock painting group in the world.

I estimate our group has painted and hidden 3 million rocks across Ohio, the United States and around the World.

Our rocks can be found in all 50 states.



Our rocks can be found in 50+ foreign countries.



Our group was inspired by Whidbey Island Rocks 


Whidbey Island Rocks was inspired by the first community based rocks group, Port Angeles Rocks


Northeast Ohio Rocks! has inspired about 90 groups who have inspired groups as well.


In June, I created a rock painting event for Northeast Ohio Rocks! and I called it #share100smiles. It was a challenge with the goal being to paint 100 rocks with smiles on them.



Northeast Ohio Rocks! members have painted 100 sets of 100 smile rocks. The event became so amazing a spin off group was created. Now other groups in the United States, Australia and New Zealand are painting smiles too.

Share 100 Smiles

We have changed people and communities and how we share kindness.

We aren't your average Facebook group. We work hard to bring you a negative free, conflict free, advertising free place to come be inspired and become an inspiration.

I know that I have said this before but the amazement just keeps bringing me back to it.....never in my wildest dreams did I ever think we would grow like this. What I did know was there are still kind people in the world. Society accepts negativity as the norm and that is unacceptable. Northeast Ohio Rocks! has given people a way to share kindness without being rejected and a way to find unexpected kindness that can change a mood and create a chain reaction of happiness. Rock on! Northeast Ohio!! You have changed the world....Keep Rocking!

Thank you to all of you! Our painters, our finders who become painters and all our members who share positive messages.

Northeast Ohio Rocks! and so do all of you!!
