WHAT WE DO

Look What I Did was founded in 2020 during Covid, a pivotal time in history, where self-motivated learning, creative expression, and finding unique ways to connect with others with compassion and generosity, were especially important. The goal of Look What I Did has always been to provide a free and easily accessed resource to people of all ages all over the world.

 

We provide projects that engage kids (and adults!) in creative problem-solving and artistic expression.

 

Our projects are distributed in the form of physical kits (where computer access is limited) and online around the world.

​

We engage people of all ages in community projects. The goal is for "look what I did" to become "look what we did together."

​

Our make • play • solve • move + share projects provide a framework for sparking imaginative ideas and building confidence. We strive to design projects that do not require expensive or hard-to-find materials. Most of our projects only require a pencil, paper and an open mind! We promote hand drawing and construction over computer time but have videos and YouTube links that help visual learners.

​

We carefully curate and promote inspiring educational resources that offer free access to museums, literacy, drama, science, film, math, art, and health and fitness.

​

We encourage participants to:

  • Use the framework of our projects to spark their creative energy 

  • Explore how every day objects can be used in new and creative ways

  • Share by giving someone something they made, sharing a digital photo or video, or participating in our rotating community galleries

  • Make their own art supplies such as ink pads, papers straws, and play dough

  • Use the library and internet as resources 

  • Pass on what they'd learned from the projects to others

​

Community Sharing & Caring

We have multiple community participation projects that welcome contributions from people of all ages.

​

Current community projects:

  • Art gallery
