CREATIVE PLACEMAKING

We believe in the transformative power of art to shape spaces and create meaningful connections.

WE ARE THE LEADER FOR
ARTS & CULTURE IN OUR COMMUNITY

Our Creative Placemaking Team curates and programs immersive art experiences that activate public areas, enrich the local cultural landscape, and support the growth of Central Florida’s arts community. From live performances to visual arts installations, we collaborate with local artists, property owners, and municipalities to bring art into everyday life, fostering a more vibrant and inspiring community for all.

THE POWER + IMPACT OF ART

The arts are more than inspiration—they are a powerful driver of economic growth. Studies show that for every $1 invested in the arts, there’s an average return of $5 in local economic activity. Investing in the arts helps create jobs, supports local businesses, and attracts tourism, all while nurturing cultural diversity and inspiring future leaders. The arts connect us, enrich our community, and fuel our economy.
