Monument Lab. Thank you for sharing your work with the world for this year’s Monument Lab Summit last week in Philadelphia! The Cause Lab team left feeling energized and galvanized to work towards real change. We were reminded that solving complex challenges is where we want to sit, wholeheartedly in community – which was reinforced by the amazing gathering of artists, muralists, collaborators, and more. Please never stop pushing all of us to question!

Coming off of an exceptional first few weeks, THE HUNT at St. Ann’s Warehouse is here! The “provocative and powerful drama… painstakingly shows how little misunderstandings and the best of intentions can lead to irrevocable harm, how moral panics are contagious, and how the noble impulse to protect the most vulnerable is intimately tied to ancient and darkly tribal instincts.” – Theatermania Working on projects that are unafraid to embrace some of today’s thorniest questions is why we love working with clients like St. Ann’s Warehouse.
