Core Values

Home ยป About Us
  1. We believe we need to implement the recommendations of the CEC report, because we have the ability to engage in multiple areas: arts, civics and business.
  2. We believe we need to serve and create connectedness with creative professionals and knowledge workers to retain them in our community, because the more “smarties”, the more economic vibrancy.
  3. We believe in educating our community to create an awareness of issues which need to be overcome and areas of pride, because it will change mindsets which will result in social change.
  4. We believe in our ability to collaborate because it will lead to higher quality outcomes.
  5. We believe Fresno can be the place we want it to be (vibrant, edgy, cool, fun), because it will make Fresno a home and help attract and retain creative professionals.
  6. We believe things can change, because we will raise and broaden Fresno’s expectations of its community.
  7. We believe knowledge workers are important, because they bring positive change by way of a diverse community.
  8. We believe diversity benefits the greater community, because it brings exposure to new ideas and cultures.
