We are creative connectors … and re-connectors

Creative project management in the news
People often ask, “What does Charlotte Is Creative do?”
It’s easy to get lost in the answer. It’s easy for us to talk about our promotional efforts — like The Biscuit — or the funding and training we provide through HUG micro-grants and our Creative Entrepreneurs Initiative or the gatherings we host like CreativeMornings/Charlotte or the advocacy work we do or the project management we do for organizations and companies that put creatives to work.
Before long, we can see the asker’s head spinning. And, ours are, too. Let’s simplify. We are creative connectors.
We use our resources, our social capital and knowledge to connect creatives to information, resources, funding, job opportunities and each other. We connect businesses and nonprofits to creatives who can help them approach their work in new ways, whether it’s exciting their employees with internal programs or their customers and the general public with externally focused creative projects.
And, over the past few months, we find ourselves as creative re-connectors, welcoming Charlotteans back to the people, places, events and gatherings they may have missed over the last two years.
Through our work, we want to help establish a culture in Charlotte where creatives feel connected, where creativity is nurtured and where collaboration is celebrated.
The ultimate goal? Collaboration. It’s in working together where opportunities are created, solutions are found and innovation abounds. We want to do our part to break that down. We want to be matchmakers and connect creatives and businesses to each other. And, we’re thankful for so many amazing organizations and individuals who trust us and want to partner with us to do the work.
Collaboration is key.
Connection is vital.
There’s so much to celebrate.
And, miles to go before we sleep.
All good things,
Tim Miner and Matt Olin
