At CoBALT Connects, we’re lucky to be able to take on projects that yield very tangible, lasting results.

CARFAC Ontario has its sights set on establishing industry standards in the visual, media, and craft-based art sectors across the province. This ambitious, multi-year, collaborative project kicked off a series of regional forums last Friday, with the Hamilton-Niagara contingent having its say.

We know graphic design is immensely important as a creative industry, and increasingly so. The medium has a didactic power like no other to spread information, inspire action, and connect people to ideas.

We’ve got a number of large wooden crates sitting in the office these days, filled with craft paper-wrapped parcels of various sizes. No, we haven’t started a shipping and receiving business; these crates are emblazoned with a Community Supported Art stamp. They’re prototypes for the art-filled boxes 200 members of the Hamilton-Burlington communities will take home this December.
