Capitol Creative Alliance

We are grateful for our members, who sustain our work throughout the year. During Design Week this year, we hosted a tote bag workshop for our members in partnership with MADE Studios, who opened up their doors for us and sponsored the workshop. We have more ideas up our sleeves for 2025, so if you're not a member yet, join us! We are less than 10 memberships away from reaching our goal for the year. Join a thriving, fun, and creative community who share their passion for their craft and offer support. https://lnkd.in/gbVjHDw5 Special shout-out to Aiza Lyn León @madebyaiza for the awesome photos!

We are grateful for ALL of our volunteers that make Capitol Creative Alliance what it is. CCA was built by an all-volunteer team and alongside our two part-time staff members, our volunteers continue to support every aspect of CCA. From setting up at events and running check-in, organizing and planning all of our events, designing and scheduling social media posts, completing UX research projects, to serving on our Board, we are still volunteer-led. There's no way we could have captured all of our volunteers in one post. We'll be showing more love to our volunteers as we close out another fantastic year of bringing our creative community together. While we are currently not welcoming any new volunteers, there will be more opportunities to get involved in the new year so stay tuned! Come hang out with our team at our End of Year party on Giving Tuesday - Tues., Dec. 3rd at 5:30 pm at Bike Dog - East Sac. We'll see you there! https://lnkd.in/g3bcK8_R
