About us

What is it?

Traditions Together is a website where students of K-12 ages can submit their stories about cultural and religious traditions they celebrate with their families. With each story, students can express their creativity through their writing and the drawings or photographs they choose to accompany their story. Through an online platform, students can have an opportunity to showcase their work for their family and peers to view along with additional stories in its own online “library”. 

Our Mission

Traditions Together strives to create a place where diversity in our community is showcased. Diversity in media has a huge impact on viewers, with the inclusion of diversity in the stuff we hear, see, and read, students of minority groups feel seen and heard. Our goal is to create a space where multiple stories of diversity are celebrated. Not only is it important for an individual to have pride in their traditions and have a way to express them, but it is also important for others to understand and gain insight into the stories of others. Traditions Together strives to combine creativity and education. In making this website, we hope to create a space where all students can gain new insight into cultural traditions and learn more about the diversity in our community.
