At The Creative School, we position Queens & Kings to capture the stories of their people so they can design solutions for their place.

Invest in Designing Solutions
Now more than ever, Queens & Kings need consistent, in person moments to connect with their peers & mentors around health for themselves and their community. That’s why 8 times a year Queens & Kings host COMMUNITY HEALTH DAYS—or intergenerational gatherings at partner locations in Southeast, DC, when close to 100 members of their community join them for health focused family friendly activities, partner facilitated community conversations, and a FREE bottle of Soufside D.R.I.P. --a fresh pressed juice brand that they own and operate.
Each bottle is distributed for FREE in exchange for a story about what solutions the Queens & Kings should design for the community.
Invest in our network gatherings, our health, our stories, our solutions.
