Our Mission

Giant Joy Collective is a multidisciplinary arts initiative that brings people of all ages and abilities together to explore the transformative power of storytelling in all its forms—from giant puppets and shadow play to writing, filmmaking, and performance.

Through collaborative creation and joyful experimentation, we cultivate inclusive spaces where imagination thrives, voices are amplified, and art becomes a catalyst for connection, celebration, and meaningful social reflection.

Our Values

Imagination as Power

We believe storytelling is a vital force that shapes hearts, shifts perspectives, and sparks change. Whether through puppetry, shadow play, poetry, film, or scriptwriting, we honor imagination as a tool for transformation.

​

Radical Inclusion

Accessibility and belonging are at the center of our work. We welcome artists and non-artists of all ages, abilities, and backgrounds, honoring lived experience and the strength of many voices creating together.

Art Across Forms, With Purpose

From page to stage, shadow to screen, we embrace multidisciplinary expression. We use visual, literary, performative, and cinematic arts to elevate stories that matter and invite reflection, dialogue, and connection.

​

Joy as Resistance

We believe joy is revolutionary. In a world often divided, we gather to create beauty, meaning, and magic—illuminating truth through collective joy and the enduring power of storytelling.
