Thriving together.
About Sprat
Established in 2014, Sprat brings people together to form connections through the transformative power of creative arts. We believe in community, creativity, and vulnerability as the path to authentically express ourselves and our deepest stories. Since our inception, we have always been drawn to the meaning of the word Sprat, which means a small herring aka tiny fish. Sprats swim together, work together and thrive off of each other and the well-being of their community as a form of survival. At Sprat, we recognize our elders as the most important participants in designing the future of our world, acting as the bridge between generations by delivering one-of-a-kind learning experiences. Through our science-backed art curriculum, our goal is to bring together connection, community, and creative projects with the belief that working together in the arts can truly heal us.
