The key is the mud 

 

​

It’s dark out there, isn’t it? But that’s how we all begin. In the dark. And, often times, it’s where we return - time and again - as we change and grow. It’s murky. Messy, even.

​

But...

​

Mud has meaning. You could even say that the key IS the mud.

​

There is light. Beauty. Hope. Transformation. The courageous, persistent struggle through the murky water is what it is to be human.

​

We are The LOTUS Project.

​

Musicians. Audiences. Artists. Humans. Stories. 

​

We believe that a true, honest, artistic encounter can serve as a doorway to transformation. That’s our vision -  to transform ourselves - and ultimately, our culture - for the better with powerful encounters with each other through the arts.

"...art never stopped a war and never got anybody a job. That was never its function. Art cannot change events. But it can change people. It can affect people so that they are changed... because people are changed by art – enriched, ennobled, encouraged – they then act in a way that may affect the course of events... by the way they vote, they behave, the way they think.”
