From the Founder
"East Tennessee has always had the talent. It just needed a platform."
"I wanted to build a supportive and inclusive space for the rest of us (ETC.). I was tired of manually maintaining a vendor list and watching creatives post to multiple Facebook groups just hoping to reach the right people — with those platforms, everyone was missing the creative outlet, that space to truly express themselves and reflect their brands. This puts everyone in the same place, removes the guesswork, and hopefully inspires creativity."
