About the
Project
The Creative Economy is Thriving. Artists Are Not.
The Creative Economy is currently $3.3 trillion in size and on track to grow to $11.5 trillion by 2035.
It is built on the creativity, craft, and culture of artisans, experience makers, storytellers, and solopreneurs.
And yet, relative to the wealth created, and the multi-trillion dollar economy that has been built, the creatives who built it are still starving. This is something that has gone unnamed for too long, and unchallenged for even longer.
We Listen. We Learn. We Build.
We gather, collaborate, and share real-world solutions.
We listen, learn, and co-create the systems, services, and business models needed for generational wealth.
We build what is missing from the ground up, traveling across North America to meet and work with our community in real life.
This is how we change systems. City by city.
Join the journey. Let's build the future of the Creative Economy together.
