Bringing artists to your table 
for transformative impact

Artists possess a broad toolkit of methodologies and practices that can help potential collaborators in every sector approach problems in new ways, engage audiences and customers more deeply, and find connections and adjacencies between seemingly unrelated ideas… Artists are imagination partners. Always ready to pose the “what if” questions that blow up our old thinking and lead to radically new ideas.

Steven J. Tepper, Dean, ASU Herberger Institute for Design and the Arts

Creativity exists in the community to solve problems. Artists don’t just solve specific problems. Artists represent our ability as a society to solve all our problems.

Deborah Cullinan, Vice President for the Arts, Stanford University

If design has become the poster child of and a primary tool for problem solving, I propose that art, characterized by open-ended inquiry driven by imagination and creativity, is an essential and missing ingredient in our quest to remake our world to be a more equitable, just and sustainable place.

Robert Ransick, Minneapolis College of Art and Design
