Creative & Playful

We embrace a variety of ways to investigate and articulate, including academic and creative writing, music, visual arts, movement and live arts, and more.

Please remember that these principles capture what we strive to achieve, but we are imperfect messy humans who struggle, get tired, do mistakes, and are often constricted by the parameters of the systems and structures we operate within.
