Description
Creative Connectionsis a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit international cultural education organization. We create and facilitate innovative arts-based exchanges between classrooms in the US and their peers around the world. Our mission is to educate young people by encouraging their awareness, understanding, and appreciation of other cultures, as well as their own.
We believe that cultural awareness is an essential element of every child’s education in an increasingly interconnected world. Our programs build bridges between students in the USA and their international peers through the exchange of arts and ideas. These exchanges teach cultural literacy and promote appreciation for other cultures, customs and traditions.Last year alone, we reached over 10,000 students in 25 countries across 5 continents from grades 3 to 12 in private and public schools
