A community for moms & families in Jackson, MI

Every strong tree begins with deep roots. In our community, moms and matriarchs are those roots. We are the ones stretching ourselves to hold everything steady while life keeps pulling us in a dozen directions at once.

When I say “community,” what comes to mind?

By definition, community is two things:

A feeling of fellowship with others - born from sharing common attitudes, interests, and goals.

A group of people living in the same place or connected by something they share.

But community is more than a definition. It’s the foundation we build together - the everyday structure that holds us up.

The arts are central to The Village Collective. We know - because of both our training and our lived experience - that music and creativity aren’t extras. They’re essentials. They build life skills, strengthen families, and spark belonging.

Because the arts are what turn a group of strangers into a family. And that’s exactly the kind of Village we’re building together.
