BIG Creative Consulting

Written By Chip Chip

BIG Creative Consulting works at the intersection of culture, place, and community, helping organizations and communities create stronger, more connected places.

Founded by Chip and Abra Allan, BIG brings together decades of experience in downtown management, cultural programming, public space, community engagement, and organizational strategy. Its work ranges from strategic planning and district management to creative placemaking, events, communications, and the sometimes-messy work of helping people figure out what they want a place to become—and how to get there.

BIG is also the producer of The Sidewalk Ballet, extending that work through conversations with the people shaping cities around the world.
