Central Ohio has diverse and thriving creative businesses, organizations, and individuals. Just think about Abercrombie, “the Wex”, Ballet Met, the Short North, Couchfire, inVentiv, CATCO, Design Central, Resource Interactive… the list goes on. Or the writers, designers, architects, dancers, photographers, gallery directors, musicians and web gurus that you know.
Creative Columbus is taking stock of this creative economy—its scale, impact, and potential. We hope that if we can inventory what’s here, we can create more opportunity for business and culture in our region.
The first step is data. This study will identify how the various creative businesses and organizations, workforce and talent are represented and connected in Central Ohio. To help us measure this economy and community, we’re looking for everyone to participate in this “creative census”: young and old; mainstream and fringe; big corporations and sole proprietors; for-profit, non-profit, and public. Stand up and be counted!
Privacy Note: All individual survey responses will remain confidential. Only aggregated data will be distributed in project publications or presentations.
