The Problem We Face
Our communities are grappling with a complex web of interconnected challenges ― a polycrisis that threatens our collective wellbeing. From public health disparities to environmental degradation, from educational inequity to economic instability, these issues are deeply rooted and mutually reinforcing.
Traditional, siloed approaches to community development have fallen short in the face of this complexity.
We need new strategies that are holistic, adaptive, and grounded in the unique assets and aspirations of each community. We need solutions that tap into the creativity, resilience, and wisdom of our residents. And we need these solutions to be immediate, sustainable, and cost-effective.
We need Creative Leadership.
Artists, designers, and other kinds of creative workers are key drivers of socio-economic development.
Through our proven model of Creative Leadership, we empower artists, residents, and community stakeholders to collaboratively tackle complex challenges and drive systemic change.
OUR APPROACH IS THREEFOLD
Insight Building
Through deep community engagement and participatory research, we uncover the unique strengths, needs, and visions of each neighborhood we serve. This insight forms the foundation for authentic, impactful action.
Capacity Building
We provide training, mentorship, and resources to cultivate a robust network of Creative Leaders ― artists and residents equipped with the skills to design and implement transformative placemaking initiatives.
Coalition Building
We foster cross-sector partnerships that leverage the unique assets and expertise of diverse stakeholders. By aligning efforts and resources around a shared vision, we create the conditions for sustained, scalable impact.
