We are committed to cultivating our many seeds and to seeing what we may harvest together. STITCH began as a humble open mic in 2009. It was born from a seed, a want to grow a space that had yet to exist in Milwaukee. STITCH began as a conversation to which a good listener and friend said, "Let's make it happen!" That's really all our small seed needed to begin growing its roots deep -- that and hundreds more who believed once they caught word. Sometimes all we need is for another to believe in us; sometimes all we need is to believe in each other. We need to remind ourselves, our people, of the power WE hold to transform OUR communities as we see fit.
STITCH is dedicated to finding more seeds in our city and to listening to what they imagine beyond wildest belief. We make things happen -- proyectos, we make them happen because we believe in them and in each other. Every proyecto we have realized began as a seed of an idea, a desire from deep within. We know that our people have many brilliant ideas, many mind-blowing, revolutionary, and magic seedlings inside. We are committed to cultivating our many seeds and to seeing what we may harvest together. We all have skills and knowledge that is valuable and worth sharing. We know that what our people already possess is also the solution to our city's problems. In other words, we need not go elsewhere for answers, we got everything we need right here at home. |
