For established institutions
with complex, high-stakes programs.
Your programs are visible, layered, and loaded with expectation—board, donors, press, and the public. This stage is for organizations that need a dedicated creative partner of record: consistent counsel, continuity across seasons, and decision velocity across stakeholders.
Reinstate the blueprints.
Every engagement with landmark programs begins with a one-month Blueprint Month for $2950). This phase establishes governance and continuity before high-visibility work moves into production.
Includes:
- Five working sessions
- Stakeholder conversations as needed (leadership, program, communications, advancement)
- A collaborative online board that becomes the shared hub for scope, stakeholders, and workflow
- Robust production schedules or project management setup for what gets made, in what order, and with whose input
By the end of the month:
- A clear map of programs, channels, and decision rights
- A working governance rhythm: review rituals, quality assurance cycles, and approval flow
- A recommended engagement shape: retainer-first, or a contained project start
↪ Make a new connection.
“Creative counsel” that safeguards creative vision.
A retainer is the core model for landmark programs: executive creative partnership—or to use the legal parallel, a “creative counsel of record.”
Typical retainer support includes:
- A single accountable partner for narrative, aesthetics, and communications operations
- Dedicated weekly time with standing meetings and documented decisions
- Leadership support: review, recommendations, and second-brain counsel
- Stewardship of high-stakes moments: board or donor narratives, major launches, and public-facing campaigns
- Governance and quality assurance to create internal coherence, and public reputation
Or, we can design a tailored project or season engagement to build a contained scope to begin.
Typical project support looks like:
- Program and season planning for a defined window
- Campaign asset direction for a major initiative
- Exhibition and launch stewardship for a specific show or series
(Better to show than tell.)

How to start a partnership.
Retainers establish continuity and institutional memory. Projects are tightly scoped with clear milestones and check-ins. Either will begin with Blueprint Month so the work is properly framed and aligned with all stakeholders before any execution begins.
