"Preserving Traditions & Ancient Wisdom"
MISSION
Our
mission is to preserve and transmit ancient artistic and cultural knowledge,
both locally and internationally. Our projects are educational and contribute
to perpetuate endangered customs such as Traditional/Ethnic music, dance,
weaving, spiritual ceremonies, natural healing and natural building... We also
aim at supporting Artists, Craftsmen, Teachers and Students through our projects,
events and workshops, while connecting them with the broader community.
VISION
We
fear that Materialism and Globalization will lead to a homogenized culture
worldwide. Therefore we hope to protect some of our remaining traditions in
order to keep this world rich in diversity.
VALUES
We
consider these ancient skills as valuable
treasures of humanity worth safeguarding and spreading.
