Creative Region Initiative
THANK YOU to our Creative Sponsors
On behalf of SOCHE's Creative Class Task Force, we thank you for getting involved in the Creative Region Initiative: a project that empowers the community, giving emerging leaders the tools to generate economic prosperity, build community vibrancy, and improve quality of life.
Nearly 130 individuals applied to be a community Catalyst. It was our goal to build a diverse team of community leaders–by background, industry, age, race, orientation and experience–that will engage the broader community in driving programs aimed at fostering and expanding our creative base. Please see the list of Community Catalysts.
Below is additional information on the Creative Region Initiative as well as other resources. Contact us at (937) 258-8890 or by email if you have any questions and/or would like to join the listserv.
