OUR VALUES
Youth-Driven
We want to build programs that prioritize young artists’ ideas and creative freedom of movement.
Handmade
We want to foster community through in-person experiences and making things from scratch.
Playful
We work hard, but also make room for plenty of fun, spontaneity, daydreaming, and creative detours.
Deeply Local
Our community contains an abundance of talent and resources that we want to discover, spotlight, connect, and amplify.
AccessiblE
We want to make our programs radically affordable and broadly share material resources so no one is turned away due to lack of funds.
Inclusive
We strive to create environments where everyone is welcome and can share their voice in our community.
Punk Rock
We generate our own source of power by being independent, underground, and not associated with gate-keepers
