Invitation to Annual Creative Activist Summit at the Dan Eldon Center
Our annual CAP members gathering is at the Dan Eldon Center for Creative Activism in Malibu, CA. It’s a great opportunity to share ideas and resources with other like-minded folks and to communicate how the Creative Visions’ network can help support your project. You’ll get inspired for sure, you’ll probably meet some new friends, you’ll most likely get some good advice, and you may even get a tan.
