The Inaugural Issue of Cultural Compass Was Published
This year marked the debut release of 2024 Cultural Compass: Digital Marketing Benchmarks to Guide Arts and Cultural Institutions, with findings drawn from the 2023 digital advertising data from 150+ arts organizations across the United States and Canada. The study offers data-backed answers to our industry’s marketing curiosities.

1 Year Completed as an ESOP 🎉
Last year, CI became employee-owned through an ESOP (employee stock ownership plan). Being employee-owned means that members of the CI team have a personal stake in the growth and impact of our work. It fosters a culture where our goals are not just business objectives, but shared priorities that drive us forward together. As partners in the arts and culture sector, we believe this unique model strengthens our ability to deliver the strategic solutions and exceptional service that help arts and culture thrive.
We were thrilled to celebrate 1 year (and beyond, now!) of ESOP ownership in 2024. This opportunity to invest in our employees is a privilege and just one of the many benefits we’re proud to offer our team.
Looking Towards 2025
In 2025, our work will continue with fervor. In fact, we have something new and exciting coming soon to further support arts and culture 👀 Stay tuned for details in the coming weeks!
As we look towards the new year, remember that what you do matters. Our community, creativity, and passion is an unshakeable strength.
Cheers to endless art, love, and learning in 2025.
