Being a creative isn’t just a job, a career, or a title. It’s an identity. It is something  given and found in the wonder of the creative process. It's the power to bring emotion, action, and change in our minds and the world around us.

2026 Emphasis: Collage

Collage reflects the beauty of God bringing together unexpected stories, seasons of failure, success, and the mundane, and diverse people to create a masterpiece once unimaginable. This year, we celebrate how the fragments of our lives and what and how we create are woven into God’s greater story, bringing unity and beauty out of brokenness and struggle. From our individual creative acts to the gathering of the nations and final restoration of the new heavens and new earth, we honor the Master Artist who transforms every scattered piece into a unified display of His glory.

Create with Purpose.
Craft with Intent.
Impact with Meaning.
