The National Consortium for Creative Placemaking (NCCP) is a growing leader in the area of arts-based economic and community development. NCCP envisions a nation of communities made more resilient, sustainable, prosperous, just and equitable through creativity, arts and culture. Creative placemakers -- who can come from any discipline or any part of the community -- guide these efforts. NCCP builds authentic connections, capacity and community for better creative placemaking.
