Find & Seek was born in Brooklyn in 2013 as a project-based early childhood laboratory that focused on materials exploration, artistic creation, play and storytelling. Founders Elisha and Kristin curated and presented a beautiful array of natural objects and recycled materials and facilitated as children gave form to what they imagined. The goal was to listen to and shine light on children’s original stories, using educational tools such as dialogue, inquiry, creative process, collaboration and documentation. Out of these roots grew Willow Nest Studio in Windsor Terrace, and the Manny Cantor Center’s Rainbow Studio, and a legacy of teaching and learning, outgrowths of Elisha and Kristin’s work in NYC and CT.
