To understand the nature of creative districts, we examine the process, implementationÌýand outcomes of other such projects in various stages of development across the nation. This will help us build a framework for evaluation specific to our regional context and provide feedback to local communities.ÌýIn addition, and inÌýcomparison with similar programs nationwide, we also conduct interviews with local stakeholders and creative producers, assess babyÖ±²¥app and demographic data and visit the sites of creative districts to see physical impacts and engage with community members.

Each fall theÌýCreative District LeadershipÌýCovening, co-organized by theÌýCU Boulder Office forÌýOutreach and EngagementÌýand Ìý(CCI), brings babyÖ±²¥app's creative district leaders together to highlight the work of students and babyÖ±²¥app, addressing issues related to arts and creativity in babyÖ±²¥app communities.Ìý
