today’s seeds

Today’s Seeds believes that every child should be able to make their mark on their world and receive help to build a better future.

Every adult needs to provide that help to build bridges across the Social Divides, fostering Hope, Creativity and Art.

Our mandate: to harness the power of the Arts to promote civility.

So why not challenge the impossible?

Let’s Change the World!

Empowering Children

We strive to show children that they have a voice and a way to express it.

Supporting the Arts

We support and promote creativity and expression through the visual and performing arts.

Fostering Peace

Through the arts, we aim to bring people together by embracing what we have in common.

Embracing Knowledge

Thousands of studies strongly suggest that the Arts and Arts Education is good for our physical and mental health. The Arts help to reduce criminal activity, specifically domestic abuse by nurturing a sense of belonging. Even academic achievement increases through a strong association with the Arts.
