Creative Community Impact Association Launches to Empower Canada's Creative Leaders

HALIFAX, Nova Scotia - EntSun -- The Creative Community Impact Association (CCIA), a newly federally incorporated nonprofit, will officially launch on September 1, 2025. CCIA empowers communities, organizations, and leaders across Canada to harness creativity as a catalyst for connection, collective leadership, and lasting social impact.

Building on a Legacy of Creativity and Inclusion

CCIA evolved from a heart-centered brick-and-mortar studio, Sparkles n' Sawdust, and grew into a vibrant social enterprise, Supernova Events, driven by the belief that creativity can transform lives and communities. Along the way, we developed events, projects, and collaborations that laid the foundation for Creative Community Impact Association and continue to inspire inclusive, thriving creative communities today.
