A quick look at

OUR History

Scott and AMelia Moore

Our Founders

Founded by Scott and Amelia Moore, who adopted two sons from Guatemala. Athentikos was born from a desire to respond to the suffering witnessed during their adoption journey. They utilized their creative talents to inspire others, producing two documentary films and developing the I AM ART model.
Reparando Screening

Our Films

Athentikos produced two documentary films to highlight the stories of Guatemalans serving their communities. Reparando: Victims of Guatemala’s 36-year civil war embrace their past to heal the next generation. Becoming Fools: At-risk youth in Guatemala learn the art of clowning and discover new life.
I AM ART Fall 2024

Our Programs

After producing two documentary films, we began facilitating our I AM ART program — recruiting artists worldwide to serve together — with our primary focus on under-resourced communities in Guatemala. Building on ten years of experience, we launched an online studio program, offering various creative workshops for all ages. Most recently, we've adapted our curriculum for creative retreats.
