BLOGS & NEWSLETTER - CONNECTIONS
The creative industries share a common characteristic: a sense of community within which they operate and upon whom they depend for support. These various communities, in turn, depend on industry-specific subject matter interests and information suitable for their respective needs.
Spreading this information is key to the continued encouragement and development of the creative industries. With that in mind, the CCP has curated bespoke resources for creators’ benefit to online information, professional service providers, and events: people, places, and things that we think are important for you to know about and be able to reach.
We’re not a news reporting organization and we don’t seek to compete with them. But it’s essential for creators to stay informed and up to date, and these specialized resources will all help you to do that.
