Since quarantine began in mid March, we have transitioned to our virtual platform. To bring back life to our Casa De Culture, we sprouted seeds that are growing into kale, sage, basil, cilantro, thyme, and sunflowers. Please come visit them from time to time and watch them grow with us. These plant teachers are here to be shared with our neighborhood. To watch them grow click here.
Amsterdam Collective is fiscally sponsored by Urban Creators. Since 2010, Urban Creators has “approached community and youth development through Food, Transformative Education, and Art & Celebration as core pillars of community resiliency. Since 2010, we have cultivated fresh produce as a way of improving health in our community; curated artistic/cultural events that offered dynamic platforms for radical self-expression; facilitated educational programs that engage youth as pioneers in the revitalization of their own neighborhoods; and have supported the growth and development of small local businesses, emerging artists, and young leaders.”
