The Creative Catalyst Award recognizes a local artist, musician, or creative who sparks connection, inspires collaboration, and helps move Northern Colorado’s creative community forward. This award celebrates individuals who use their voice, vision, and creativity to uplift others, amplify local culture, and strengthen our region through meaningful artistic impact.

Recipients of this award receive a $500 grant from Dame JaCkie Erickson and KRFC, two social media posts highlighting them as the Creative Catalyst of the month, one drop-in email, and their work displayed at a local business (if applicable).

Nominate someone below who you believe embodies the spirit of creativity, community, and positive change—and deserves to be celebrated for the ripple effect they create.
