"We need a shift in our thinking, a shift in our actions, and a shift in our culture. With the #1 Cause of Death in Australia for Young People being Youth Suicide, and with Spirituality, Gore & Horror all being part of the entertainment industry that shape & influence our youth culture today (through books, movies & video games)...rather than doing away with these realities within entertainment, we want to connect more deeply with our youth through the same mediums (using entertainment with intention to help integrate trauma, emotional or physical abuse & the 'shadow self' - à la Carl Jung psychological methodology - through Music, Art & Wisdom within our own MEDIA COMPANY & CREATIVE AGENCY), remaining highly relevant to the sub-culture & dealing directly with those deeper parts of ourselves we may have overlooked. We therefore use the same kind of alternative art forms, often laced with mystical themes, but instead of leaving our audience in the dark, we purposely reconcile & consistently anchor our media in the same core, foundational, transcendent truths that have helped develop the human spirit (documented historically & culturally. We call our "Hero's Journey", the 'Art of Rebirth') for individuals, and within nations. We reframe the same sounds, shapes & stories, in a holistic transformative way, that helps redeem the shadow of past, to produce a positive shift in Australian youth culture, one young person at a time. Our content helps to stimulate discussion, inspire community & exploration, and build self-worth & identity. Without change, change is impossible. This is why we bring something different, and why we use our point of difference to serve our youth in three transformative ways: Artist Development, Personal Development, and Spiritual Development (see above on this page). With premium services available internally for Top Talent @ Wise Serpent from 11/11/2022 onwards (free for 14-24 year olds), and also via a growing list of trusted Australian 3rd Party organizations AND mentors, together, we can help create a positive shift in Australian Youth Culture, through Music, Art, and Wisdom. Longterm our goal is to create not just a program, but a movement & an underground culture, that results in a long-term decline in the Australian youth suicide rate & creates positive outcomes & incredible opportunities for young musicians, artists, and creative entrepreneurs. If you are a local business and would like to partner, you can help us achieve our goal by joining the 37 Club from just $37/week. Other ways of helping are Brand Sponsorship, GOFUNDME campaign, goods/service swaps (esp. guitars & pre-loved music gear) , space offerings, collaborations etc. From just 37 partners we can start professional development and the running the program, 100 37 Club business partners enable us to rent & run an awesome facility in the city (for example, the old Mars Bar basement venue on Gouger St. was up for lease at the time of this writing), and 333 partners will enable us to hire full-time staff & invest in consistent advertising campaigns in Adelaide as well as giving over $5000 a week to support our anchor YOUTH CHARITY SPONSOR *yet to be announced*, who are ALREADY on the ground for many years creating a positive shift in AUS Youth Culture. It will help our brand grow stronger Australia wide, to raise awareness around Youth Suicide as well as our connective solutions to mental health (working in collaboration with approved 3rd parties) as well as production, tech & web development & internal systems, to really fast-track expansion. If you'd like to see how you can help, please book an appointment on the partners page here. We need just 37 x Monthly Business Partners to join the 37 Club to start at a professional capacity & prove the concept. Businesses & brands are also encouraged to hire our agency to help with initial & ongoing fundraising. I have lived experience going through the mental health system. For me, prevention is better than cure, and safe spaces with deep meaning are a must. Wise Serpent's vision & mission is to do just that (create safe creative spaces & services for youth) using Music, Art, and Wisdom as weapons for mass peace & quantum change, through one engaged person at a time." - Grace Lion-Hunter, Wise Serpent Founder (in response to the Australian Mental Health Crisis & Youth Suicide Epidemic)
