Description
Pixel Arts is dedicated to open sourcing social transformation through video games.
Our mission is to create safe, intergenerational learning gardens for diverse youth to play, make, and design games together.
By creating safe environments and resources for youth and adults invested in maker culture and games, we serve the belief that shared creation and education provides value to our communities. Our vision is that every community can open source social change through games and provide tools and resources to transform lives.
Imagine learning through play where discovery inspires engagement and failure encourages more exploration, better communication, and shared innovation.
