Creativity drives the passion within people. Starting a new project, reaching new heights, and achieving one's goals are all driven through creativity and a yearning to try something new. Pushing the envelope and operating outside of one's comfort zone allows ordinary individuals to become something extraordinary.

Creativity allows individuals to think outside the box, solve problems, and come up with new and innovative ideas. Creativity also promotes self-expression, boosts mental health, and enhances personal and professional development, making it a valuable asset in various areas of life.

This is amazing. Without creativity, we'd be locked in the dark ages, using a stick to make lines in the dust. Creativity moved us from that to chiseling on rocks then on to the discovery of making paper and ink, and look where we are now - running companies with our teams who are everywhere in the world. Creativity has been a driving force behind every new idea and continuous improvement project. Ever.

And to think - we haven't even start talking about music and art yet. 😉

It not only combats stagnation but facilitates growth and innovation.

As a US citizen, I love hearing about entities around the world that are helping children as they learn and grow.

Education is vital, but so is creativity. Too often the need for creativity - especially the arts - is downplayed. But allowing creative juices to flow opens up a part of the brain that releases those really good hormones such as serotonin.

Thank you, Steam Co, for helping raise funds so these kids can let their imaginations soar!

Creativity is about thinking outside the box. Creativity is self-expression in the truest form.

Creativity is the catalyst that ignites our potential, allowing us to break free from norms and shape a unique and extraordinary world. Embrace it, for within its realm lies the power to unleash your true brilliance and leave an indelible mark upon the tapestry of life.

Creativity is part of what makes each of us unique, without creativity we would not have SMARTSHEET or the amazing discoveries that people have made. Creativity unlocks the power of one's own mind and potential and as @Joseph Aloysias mentioned "speaks louder than words". It is also why opportunities for kids to be creative is so important - gets them off the couch, away from the screens and open their minds up to what is possible. I love what STEAM.co (and others like them) are doing. After all, kids are our future, we need to help them harness the power that is within them!!

What an incredible collaboration! The STEAM Co. logo on McLaren Racing's Formula 1 cars is a powerful symbol of inspiration and creativity. Kudos to Smartsheet for celebrating STEAM Co.'s impact on children's lives. Together, they're shaping a better future!

Creativity helps us learn and become better. We might know one way to accomplish something, but using our creativity helps us learn new ways to do that same thing. An example we see in children is when they use items in ways we never intended, like when we would take scrap plywood that is supposed to be used for building walls and make a ramp for our bicycles to jump.

Andrée Starå

Creativity is so essential in all aspects of life!

It drives innovation, confidence and makes us feel good in general.

It's heartwarming seeing kids get the light bulb moment when they solve a problem, get an idea, or similar, and the work STEAM Co. is doing is so important.

Creativity keeps us moving forward and encourages us to adapt and improve!
