The ideas and vision expressed by some of Newark’s youth during the Newark Call to Collaboration inspired NJPAC’s Community Engagement department to look at engaging youth in decision-making processes.
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.
The ideas and vision expressed by some of Newark’s youth during the Newark Call to Collaboration inspired NJPAC’s Community Engagement department to look at engaging youth in decision-making processes.
“During the process, a wonderful synergy has developed. The weekly Host Team meetings have united our Host Team, and forged new relationships between us all, as well as the businesses and community organizations that we represent. I applaud Gathering Ground for helping communities look at themselves through a process that embraces inclusivity, accountability and openness.”
