Creative Community Leadership Institute (CCLI)
Racing Magpie is proud to be a part of a shared leadership structure of the Creative Community Leadership Institute (CCLI) with Springboard for the Arts (St. Paul & Fergus Falls, MN). CCLI is an intensive, in-person, cohort-based training program for creative placemakers, artists, culture bearers, and other leaders interested in creative community building. The CCLI experience can be transformational in perspective, connections made, and within the communities impacted. Outcomes for CCLI participants include: gaining more knowledge about the role of art and culture in problem solving, building skills to be able to effectively integrate art and culture into problem solving, leadership growth, and gained networks of cross-sector peers.

There are currently more than 230 CCLI alumni across Minnesota, North Dakota and South Dakota including practicing artists, elected officials, community leaders, business leaders, government officials, people working in philanthropy, academics and many others. Participation in CCLI is free of charge to those selected through a rigorous application and selection process. CCLI is made possible through generous support from the Bush Foundation.
