We Believe in The Power of Stories
Who We Are
In addition to being a cross-cultural art project, Quest of Sages is also a US registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. We work with the communities encountered along the way to aid them in the preservation of their folklore and traditional practices. We are a volunteer run coalition of artists, storytellers, cultural advocates, and innovative passion-driven thinkers.
Mission
Promote global unity and support cultural preservation through innovative storytelling and collaboration with the arts.
Vision
A world of inspired change-makers using creative expression to preserve cultural identity and invoke real change.
Mission Statement
We believe in the power of art and creative storytelling as a universal language. Through this universal language, a new type of narrative can be created. A narrative that transcends traditional storytelling and fosters a sense of purpose.
Throughout the world there are cultural traditions at risk of extinction because they don’t have the resources to connect with the world to preserve their identity. There are countless organizations working to make the world a better place who remain relatively unknown and underfunded. There are powerful activists fighting for what they believe, yet their voices go unheard.
Additionally, there are also artists. writers and creatives from across the globe who are on their own quest for identity, for community and for a sense of purpose. Quest of Sages aims to provide a platform that brings creatives together with those who could benefit from them the most, conceptualizing innovative new projects that elevate the global presence of these organizations and cultures.
What We Believe
We believe in the power of creative storytelling and conceptual art as a vehicle to raise awareness to global issues.
Art and storytelling have always been at the forefront of raising awareness to real-world issues, mostly through journalistic and documentary methods. Quest of Sages believes that a more creative approach through utilizing fictional storytelling and conceptual art can be a powerful medium for inspiring people to act. It is our mission to combine visual engagement along with education, using the power of creative storytelling to encourage people to learn more and take action. When done correctly, art can be an effective tool in creating meaningful conversations around global challenges such as culture preservation and climate crisis initiatives.
We believe in the power of cross-cultural collaboration to promote global connection and understanding.
Through active engagement across cultures, we can create a more peaceful and respectful society. At its core, cross-cultural collaboration encourages open dialogue among diverse people that values each community’s unique contributions. When citizens around the world come together to share varying perspectives, it creates a new level of global connectivity and appreciation for humanity. Believing in the strength of these partnerships empowers us all to create meaningful connections and foster tolerance throughout our local and global communities.
We believe that ancient environmental wisdom and traditional sustainability practices are vital in the fight against climate change.
Valuable insight and knowledge brought forward by indigenous communities can contribute to the increasingly important effort in tackling climate change. Ancient knowledge of the environment, long standing traditional practices and approaches rooted in cultural wisdom are integral to developing effective and sustainable methods of conserving our planet. From fire management techniques to better farming practices, information learned from indigenous communities offer us an opportunity to minimize climate impact and restore harmony with nature. By embracing this incredible wealth of knowledge, we can strengthen our fight against the climate crisis and bring about real, lasting change.
