MIDAS is a 5013c nonprofit that helps mothers pursue their vision in creative fields.
Mothers in Design, Art and Sciences’ purpose is to bring together like-minded mothers, women and people who have crossed the threshold into caring for another being.
As time for inquisitiveness, creativity and study can be lessened when nurturing others, we aim to create conversations and events centered around infusing our complicated and busy lives with imagination.
MIDAS’s manifesto is to uphold ourselves and others to continue pursuing vision in our creative fields throughout motherhood, with support and camaraderie.
We welcome all sexes, ages and genders, and use “mother” to mean a state of being.
