What We Offer

At KKUM, you’ll find a growing collection of:

• Courses on dream psychology, art, inner work, and cross-cultural identity

• Creative workshops in art therapy, mythology, storytelling, visual arts, and healing practices

• Community events and publications (like Dreck magazine) that challenge norms and celebrate difference

We welcome artists, therapists, educators and curious minds of all backgrounds.

Each experience is crafted to deepen your understanding of yourself, your roots, and the world around you — and to celebrate what makes each of us different.

Because at KKUM, we don’t believe in fitting in.
We believe in unfolding who you truly are — through culture, connection, and inner work.

How We Do It

We design online courses, workshops, and events that bring together the depth of psychology, the healing power of art, and the richness of world cultures.
Our team includes psychologists, artists, educators, and researchers — united by a shared vision of creative education that is cross-cultural, inclusive, and sustainable.

Each offering is crafted to build bridges:
Between science and symbolism. Between East and West. Between inner life and outer expression.

We prioritize depth, creativity, emotional honesty, and ecological awareness — aiming to offer experiences that are intellectually grounded, personally enriching, and culturally respectful.
