Make it clear.
Make it real.
Make it
impossible to ignore.

Thought partnership, concept development, design, engagement, and more. We use our Open Ground methodology to help nonprofits and organizations move audiences.

Unlike common ground, Open Ground brings people together, introduces new ideas, and makes space for real connection—without requiring anyone to sacrifice their identity or legacy.

You know how to fight for your mission.
You know how to serve your community.

Let us make sure the right people see it at the right time.

We’re a creative communications & design firm working hard in Appalachia.
