Planting the seed

All the work of TCDF is made possible by many many small contributions of many people: Ambassadors who spread the word about TCDF during travels or at home, volunteers who take care of a small part of our big project, workshop leaders who use our venue, artist and guests who visit us, even if only for a short while.

One small action can have a big effect. And even if the effect is not directly visible to you please realize that without all these small actions, TCDF would not be possible.

We planted a seed and all nourishing and all drops of water will help with the growth into a strong, healthy tree that bears an abundance of sweet fruit!

Join the Artist in residence program and help our tree to grow! Sharing is caring!
