The BLVD is a membership community built for creative professionals and the people who show up for them. We work together to sustain ongoing development support and spaces where creatives, advocates, and audiences can connect.

 

An Open Letter from Taryn Janelle:

Over the past few days I've watched creative professionals ask the same question over and over: does anyone have a space I can use?

That question is exactly what The BLVD exists to end. We aren't just running a venue, we are creating a place for you to land.

As a member, you're never wondering if space exists. You're never hoping the comment thread has a key to something. The question becomes more simple: "is the space available on this date?" That's it. No uncertainty, no gatekeepers, no waiting on someone else to point you in the right direction because this is YOUR SPACE TOO.

Membership also means you're not figuring it out alone.

I have spent years working with nonprofits and municipalities, helping them reach their strategic goals. Over time, I have met a host of other high performing consultants who are all artists in their own right. Fundraisers, Project Managers, Marketing Professionals, and Arts Leaders, folks who have built and run organizations of their own who have joined me at The Blvd, standing at the ready to answer your questions. You don't need a special invitation, you don't need to figure out an "in," you don't need to wait for that panel discussion. We are a community of people doing the same work you are. We've been there, we're STILL there, and we are here to help.

The BLVD is a place built so creative professionals stop having to run to Facebook for answers.

Our Grand Opening is on September 25th. Open house format from 6pm -10pm. Come see what you can build here.
