"Quinta
essentia, the
fifth element
beside fire, water, earth, and air; the element that is necessary to
explain the diversity and multiplicity of life, the finest or
best of any
substance. The quintessence is an element that permeates all nature
and is the constituent matter of the celestial bodies.The scholastics of the Middle Ages believed it to be the
ether, the substance above the sphere of fire, and of which the
human soul was made." - (from Symbols.com)
The Alchemical Nursery Project believes that the highest form of our communities will be achieved when we have elevated ourselves past our individual selves and efforts. Only by working together can we build the capacity of the Syracuse community and move onward and upward to be the best we can be. Our inherent diversity of cultures, skills, hopes and dreams will create the finest future we can imagine.
We are all one of the quinta essentia, the soul of our city, of our neighborhoods, of our families. We can bring the fire of life to our communities and set the streets alight with progress and joy.
The Quinta Essentia Fiscal Sponsorship Program is designed to enable this diversity we see among us to flourish, to provide the foundation and resources to bring people together to accomplish the goals and projects they want to achieve. The Alchemical Nursery Project is proud to be a conduit for this transformation and growth of Syracuse and beyond.
