The Spiral Garden
“ Art is the vehicle through which we make connections between our inner life and the world. The world is a mystery and through the arts we engage in dialogue with the mystery. The arts give us forms that allow us to express ourselves in ways that integrate the head, heart and hands.”

Ken Robinson
“It’s education that will take us into this future we cannot grasp”
“We don’t grow into creativity, we grow out of it ... Or rather we get educated out of it”
“Creativity is the process of having original ideas that have value which comes about through inter-disciplinary ways of seeing things”
