Intergenerational Bonds- Bridging ages through shared learning and creation
Inclusivity - Welcoming and Valuing all voices
Collaboration - Co-creating with Community and environment
Through creative gatherings we create a space where Art takes Form, from imagination, inspiration improvisation or innovation by using various materials and techniques. It is from here creativity take flight to the world like a bird (Izza). Our daughter when started speaking used to refer a bird as Izza. Creative spirit takes flight in similar fashion. This is the story behind the joint venture Izza.
This interdisciplinary studio aims to generate ideas where young hands and wise hearts can weave stories that root us in place and time.
