Isaac’s Quarterly (IQ) is a socially concerned arts and culture company that is focused on mental and spiritual edification through the knowledge of God and the power of the arts. IQ was founded in 2014 by Pastor Isaac Scott, who is a three-time Change Agent Award winner, multimedia visual artist, writer, and human rights activist studying as a Justice-in-Education scholar at the Columbia University School of General Studies.
WHAT WE DO
Our mission is to provide culturally representative aesthetics, personalized spiritual giftings and creative solutions for everyday living.We use visual arts, graphic design, fashion, design, and popular media to promote spiritual wholeness, artistic literacy, and responsible messaging. Pastor Isaac founded IQ on the belief that art is at the forefront of social change. The process begins when we imagine a new world, one that is devoid of stigma and inequality. Resourceful artistic creativity within social change is one of the most influential and sometimes overlooked methods of problem solving. When rational lived experiences are not enough to change people's minds, attitudes, and behavior, art and popular culture have the potential to touch people on deeper levels of consciousness. We use the word or God, arts and aesthetic literacy to educate, empower, and enable all people to lead successful and purposeful lives.
