We cannot change what government does,until we fix how democracy works.
After five great years, Democracy Creative's community space in Burlington, VT has closed. However, we remain an active 501(c)(3) and our democracy innovation mission continues.
Democracy Creative is a Vermont-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit working to solve the problems facing democracy in America and beyond. We believe this is the most important goal we can set, because a better democracy is a prerequisite to tackling every challenge ahead — from climate change and public health, to AI and inequality.
We are non-partisan and funded by independent donors from across the USA. We are proud to be members of Democracy R&D.
