Creative Economy Initiative (CEI)

Earlier this month, the Bolz Center consulting team presented its final recommendations for the Creative Economy Initiative (CEI) to the Village Board. The team’s recommendations included a series of strategies to take the CEI from a “Village Initiative” to a “Community Initiative” in the next three years. You can learn more about their plan by exploring a few of their key deliverables, which are now available on the Village’s Creative Economy webpage: http://www.waunakee-ed.com/creativeeconomytaskforce

We hope that this process has renewed energy for the CEI and encourage new community members to get involved. If you're interested in participating with the next phase of this work, reach out to us!
