At KIN we believe in the power of truth, told with art and beauty, to transform the thoughts and feelings of people. We oppose a modern culture that fragments families and assaults the minds and emotions of children. We want to help every family - father, mother, son, and daughter - to understand their place in the story of the world. By rooting artistic beauty in the truths of Christianity, we hope to illuminate the minds of children everywhere with a sense of wonder and confidence in a Creator who loves them.
KIN was founded by a family for families. With two decades of award-winning experience in music as the Annie Moses Band, the Wolaver family has expanded their mission into the realm of film production and narrative storytelling. Conceptualized by published author and musical songsmith, Robin Wolaver, and produced by Alex Wolaver, The Wonderful World of Benjamin Cello celebrates truth, beauty, and goodness.
Utilizing puppetry, live song and dance, acoustic instrumentation, and extensive original music, The Wonderful World of Benjamin Cello immerses children in a world that is hopeful, tactile, and beautiful.
