Mother Lode is an independent artist-run production studio specializing in the creation, production and distribution of visual art, performance art and scripted entertainment—as well as the daily content we produce to keep ourselves and our audiences inspired and at the leading edge of creativity.

We love to share what we find works in our creative processes.

At Mother Lode we have come to know that:

• Happiness is more of a never-ending journey than a destination.
• There is abundance of everything for all; our challenge now is to better manage our great abundance.
• Animals are friends, not food.
• Love is love.
• We can disagree with others without being angry with them about their opinions.
• Humor is best when we start with ourselves.
• YouTube comments can be a place of infinite wisdom when the audience is wise.
