CommonTime may not save the day but it sure can empower Educators, Artists, Arts Organizations and their learners by providing the tools to do so.

Maker of the possible.
See a need, help it. Have a question, answer it (or find someone who has the legitimate knowledge to do so). Find an obstacle, overcome it.
We need the arts.
