Impact Stories

In Nov. 2021 after ten years of our evolving mission and impact, we changed our name to Gathering Ground. You may still find reference to our old name Creative New Jersey in posts created prior to Nov. 2021.

Arts Corridor Partnership

Icons for cross-sector, arts & culture, small business, economic growth

The two county-wide Monmouth Calls to Collaboration facilitate the launch of a cross-sector initiative designed to drive tourism, arts and culture, and the downtown local economies of eastern Monmouth County’s train-line towns. Key collaborators of this new MoCo Arts Corridor Partnership include Monmouth County Division of Planning, NJ Transit, Monmouth County’s Chambers of Commerce, Monmouth Arts and many local tourism councils.

“Thank you for hosting Communities in Conversation. Having the opportunity to build new partnerships, share resources and problem solve with such a wide variety of community stakeholders was remarkable! The framework and format used created a truly valuable experience for everyone. I look forward to participating in future events like this.”
