Storytelling

Sharing our stories, Strengthening our communities

As individuals and communities, our journey is best traveled Together, enriched through shared narratives and experiences.

Together, we can create communities where every story is celebrated and every voice is heard.

Together, we can spark social change through the power of storytelling, creating a more compassionate, fair, and united world.

Our Philosophy

At Together Collaborative, our storytelling projects are rooted in the rich diversity of our communities and are co-created with the participants. Our approach is deeply collaborative, with photography being our primary medium. We frequently invite artists with diverse creative backgrounds, bringing varied personalities, and skills to enrich our work. Through partnerships with communities, volunteers, and artists, we aim to create exhibitions that spark dialogue, foster cultural exchange, and drive social change.

This inclusive approach is central to Together Collaborative's mission and aims to deepen our understanding and respect for one another, uniting people through shared experiences.

Our storytelling projects are funded through organizations and grants, and we take pride in upholding principles of ethical storytelling while maintaining cultural and trauma awareness throughout our projects.
