At The Center, we’re confronting a crisis that’s quietly reshaping our world: the steady erosion of creativity. We believe creativity isn’t just for kids or artists; it’s a universal human capacity that drives innovation, problem‑solving, and human potential. Yet, by adulthood, most of us have lost nearly all of it. That’s a problem, and an opportunity.

We believe creativity isn’t just for artists; it’s for everyone, at every age, in every walk of life. It’s how we discover new possibilities, solve our greatest challenges, and find meaning in the moments that matter. At The Center, we’re creating a new kind of home; one that invites curiosity, welcomes courageous ideas, and makes space for bold thinking and playful exploration.

We’re not just building a home for creativity: we’re designing a place where curiosity is encouraged, imagination is celebrated, and bold ideas come to life. From hands‑on programs for kids to initiatives that help adults and organizations rediscover their creative spark. With incredible partners, The Center is designing spaces, systems, and experiences that unlock and share creativity at every stage of life.

We’re a team that values imagination as much as impact. We take creative risks, think generously, lead with empathy, and steward every opportunity with integrity. Whether you’re a maker or a mentor, a late bloomer or just beginning, there’s a place here for you to grow, connect, and reimagine what’s possible.

If you’re driven by purpose, fueled by curiosity, and ready to help shape a future where creativity thrives, we’d love for you to join us. Together, we’re solving tomorrow with creativity today.
