It takes a Village
At the heart of Detroit, MI, lies a community seeking opportunity and revitalization. The Kintsugi Village stands as a beacon of change, driven by people with big hearts, winding life experiences and a shared vision for a brighter future.
Our journey begins with a profound commitment to nurturing young minds at our early childhood education center. Here, we blend traditional education with life skills curriculum, empowering our students to thrive academically, emotionally, and socially.
Join us as we prepare to open our doors in Fall 2025.

Built from a solid foundation
At the core of the Kintsugi Village lies a foundation built on resilience, compassion, and dedication. Our co-founders embody these principles, having devoted their lives to forging connections, fostering relationships, and transforming personal challenges into sources of strength and beauty.
the philosophy of
Kintsugi
Kintsugi is a traditional Japanese art form that involves repairing broken pottery with lacquer mixed with powdered gold, silver, or platinum. Instead of hiding the cracks, Kintsugi celebrates the imperfections and highlights the beauty of the broken pieces.
This philosophy is metaphorically applied to the Kintsugi Village by emphasizing resilience, adaptability, creativity, and the beauty of overcoming challenges.
