Creative Roots

Honoring the past, inspiring the future.

Creative Roots is where culture, craft, and community meet. It’s about preserving the traditions and skills that have shaped us, while giving them space to grow into something new. Through storytelling, music, art, and craft, we keep alive the threads that connect us to the people and places we come from.

Here, you might find a neighbor teaching the old songs of their childhood, an elder guiding hands through the steps of a heritage recipe, or a veteran sharing the skills they honed in service. These moments don’t just entertain—they bind us together, helping us see ourselves as part of something larger and longer than our own lifetimes.

Creative roots works hand in hand with our Skillshares & Storykeeping programs, offering spaces to learn, create, and collaborate. The result is a living archive of our shared knowledge—always growing, always welcoming new voices.
