OUR
STORY
At The Little Things TO, we believe creativity has the power to change lives. What starts as a small spark of imagination can grow into confidence, self-expression, and even world-changing ideas.
That’s why we create arts-based learning experiences and mentorship tools that invite people of all ages—children, youth, and adults—to explore their passions and share their stories. Our workshops, resources, and programs are designed to be culturally relevant, inspiring, and empowering, so everyone feels seen and supported in their creative journey.
From a preschooler picking up a paintbrush for the first time, to a youth discovering their voice, to an organization seeking to foster innovation and connection—The Little Things TO is here to remind you that the “little things” truly do matter.
Because when creativity is nurtured, confidence grows. And when confidence grows, communities thrive.
