Creativity as a family value
Creative families make things: art, music, meals, forts and terrible inventions. Putting creativity in a creed protects time and space for it, and tells kids that the glitter on the floor is worth it. A painter's palette or a feather pen makes a cheerful charge on a family crest.

We hold these things to be true:
We honor the maker in each of us.
