Change Consulting is honored to support in bringing to life The Culture Keepers, a storytelling platform that uplifts the Bay Area’s cultural backbone – the artists, culture workers, and creative leaders shaping our collective sense of belonging.
We partnered with the initiative team led by Vanessa Camarena-Arredondo to ideate and prepare for the project, developing messaging and helping ID a name that reflected the essential services these creative leaders provide to our community. We also helped develop content for the website; developed a social media and email strategy and content; a social media toolkit to equip partners to share the project to their own network; and promoted the launch via media relations.
Together with these artists and cultural leaders, we’re celebrating the truth that culture is community infrastructure; it’s how we remember, heal, and thrive. The Culture Keepers project invites all of us to ask how we are keeping culture. Visit http://TheCultureKeepers.org to meet the artists, watch and listen to their stories, and join us in supporting the people who keep our culture alive.
