Hellenism is a living culture. Our work begins there.
Odysseus & Boone discovers, creates, curates and presents the many expressions of Hellenism. We develop opportunities between Greece and North America, bringing Greek and diaspora voices into conversation with other cultures. We welcome people discovering Greek culture for the first time and those who know it well. Our ambition is to create encounters that spark curiosity, build relationships and leave people with something to carry into their own lives.

Wide-eyedness
We refuse to let familiarity become blindness. We show up every day fully open. And sense, taste, learn, understand and act on every occasion, like it’s the first time. With fresh, new, exploring eyes. With joy, above all things.
