How I Use CreativeGround
- Linalynn Schmelzer - River Valley Dance Project
“CreativeGround helps me as an artist and creative to connect and share my work with a larger community.”
– Linalynn Schmelzer, Owner - Souls of India
“CreativeGround has opened doors for Souls of India to give back to the community. We have also been identified and invited by city/town organizations like Know Your Neighbour Woburn, and Worcester Public Library this year to showcase our dynamic and impactful stories rooted in Indian heritage while embracing global influences and foster cross-cultural dialogue in a diverse community. In short, CreativeGround has empowered Souls of India to nurture multicultural community-building events over the last 2 years.”
– Sam and Meg, Co-founders - Heart of Ellsworth
“As a Main Street organization, Heart of Ellsworth works at the intersection of arts, culture, and economic development. CreativeGround allows us to easily identify local and regional artists, makers, and creative professionals who can contribute to downtown activation projects, public art, workshops, and cultural programming. Since we are not solely an arts organization, CreativeGround helps bridge our broader revitalization goals with the creative talent needed to bring cultural expression and energy to downtown. It also provides a platform for us to share our work and stay connected to the wider creative network across Maine and New England.”
