ECD works closely with other organizations to help them develop programing and meet their goals. They look to us, following guidelines from Colorado Creative Industries (CCI) a division of the Colorado Office of Economic Development (OEDIT), as an organization that can spearhead the protection, promotion, and preservation of arts organizations in Evergreen. ECD is unique in being able to offer the creative community tools, guidance, networking opportunities, and linkage with other entities to stabilize/sustain and allow them to thrive. One of ECD initiatives also involves developing a granting program to subsidize other creative entities.

The ECD board is comprised of people in leadership positions within our arts and cultural community, business entities and people who identify with the categories listed earlier. We act to facilitate and give voice to Evergreen’s Creative Industry and develop a working relationship with a wide range of local, state, and federal agencies. We work to strengthen the lifestyle our residents cherish. To sustain it for you, your children, and the future of Evergreen.
