• CREATE Your Community

    CREATE Your Community turns opportunities into active projects and programming, growing the economy and improving the quality of life in small and rural places. We’re building our network and looking for collaborators to expand resources and services across North Central Wisconsin!

    Our Approach

Making creativity central.

We believe creativity is the secret ingredient to thriving places, so we spent the last few years working to understand everything we could about it—how it spreads and grows, how it shifts and evolves, how to make it accessible, how to share its outcomes.

Collaborative Hubs

Third-space innovation centers we call Collaborative Hubs are core to this work, making up a regional network of resources to support entrepreneurial ecosystems, the creative economy, and quality places. Through cultivating a shared identity of place, we will achieve greater scale and collective impact for small and rural communities.
