Creative Communities Exchange

Registration for the Creative Communities Exchange (CCX) 2019, hosted by the New England Foundation for the Arts (NEFA) on June 6&7, 2019, in Montpelier, Vermont is now open. 

The Creative Communities Exchange (CCX) gathers people from across New England who connect creative work to community goals.  An energizing networking event, participants come to share and to learn from each other, and return home with new relationships, new ideas, and tried and true strategies. CCX welcomes participants to a different New England community every other year, and event workshops highlight a wide range of  community initiatives  from around the region that celebrate a culture of creative connection. CCX brings to life ideas grounded in NEFA’s longtime research on the creative economy and reinforces that the region’s varied and vibrant creative people and places are uniquely able to address social, economic, and cultural issues of our communities through collaboration, ingenuity, vision, and leadership. 

The CCX is for people who make inclusive creative communities happen.  It’s for people who connect arts, or creativity to the social, cultural, and economic needs of their communities. Come to network with peers, share successes and challenges, and gain useful information to bring back home.
