Create Wisconsin is Wisconsin’s leading independent community cultural development organization. We are a coalition dedicated to activating and strengthening Wisconsin’s creative possibilities.
Stay connected, speak out, and show up in 2026 and as we head into the 2027-2029 state budget season. Register today for a “creative conversation” about advocacy and action in the critically important gubernatorial and legislative candidate season, the state budget process, policy agenda, regional conferences, and the importance of being involved in civic issues from the ground up.
Now that SocialRx is launched in Wisconsin, here are resources to learn more about the program and how to be involved.
Create Wisconsin is pleased to announce the first Statewide Artist Grant Program cohort of 16 awardees. This three-year program, which supports a new cohort of award recipients each year, is made possible by generous support from the Ruth Foundation for the Arts. This year, each recipient will receive an award for individual artistic enrichment or to conduct a community-based project.
Creativity in the state relies on a strong legislative framework. We advocate for policies that support Wisconsin’s creative economy, for creatives across the entire state.
We connect artists, organizations, and legislators across Wisconsin to create networks of creative action. Create Wiscosnin’s events help connect people to creativity in their area.
We strive to promote a strong culture of idea-sharing to move Wisconsin’s creative economy forward. Connect with your creative community across the state through our newsletter, job board, or at our in person events.
Whether you’re starting a small business, or thinking up a non-profit, we’re here to help. Our searchable knowledge-base can help you find the resources you need to advocate for and create your own art in Wisconsin.
Join our mission by donating and signing up for our newsletter today.
The status quo can change with your support!
