Don't ask yourself what the world needs. Ask yourself what makes you come alive and then go do that. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive.

2019 Contagious Creativity AWARDS
Moline Creative designs and facilitates workshops that combine visual thinking and creative problem-solving. Angie B. Moline, Ph.D. works with clients to clarify their objectives and create an engaging, efficient visual process that allows them to think differently about the challenges they face. Moline Creative workshops support brainstorming, decision-making, strategic planning, and organizational change using visual techniques, such as concept mapping, visual note-taking, and custom visual processes.
The Contagious Creativity Awards are designed to serve not-for-profit clients who might not otherwise be able to afford Moline Creative services. The goal of the program is to support organizations that are doing good work in Northern Arizona. They are a gift to the community, not a write-off, so applicants and nominees for these awards must be not-for-profit organizations, but do not need to be registered 501(c)(3) non-profits.

FAQs
Q: My organization is not a registered non-profit, can we still apply?
A: Yes! Just describe what type of group you are and what your mission / goals are on the application.
Q: I am a new business (not yet profitable), can I apply?
A: Sorry, but this contest is only for non-profit organizations. If you think we should make an exception for you, feel free to send an email to ask.
Q: What does a Moline Creative workshop entail?
Moline Creative workshops typically begin with a brief organizational meeting to help the client refine the meeting objectives and identify key stakeholders. Next, Moline Creative works with the client to design the meeting agenda and visual process. Then, workshop invitations (and any pre-meeting homework) are sent to participants; the ideal group size for planning meetings is approximately 5-12 people because balances the number of creative minds in the room with the amount of “air time” each person gets during the meeting. On the meeting day, participants gather to think, draw, discuss, and decide how to meet their objectives. Angie Moline facilitates the collaboration by drawing live notes of discussions, asking questions to help clarify ideas that emerge during the meeting, and encouraging the group to make thoughtful, timely decisions. She also inserts fun, creative activities so the group stays engaged throughout the day. At the end of the workshop all visual notes are photographed and compiled into a PDF report that is quickly shared with the meeting participants to encourage memory and retention.
