At CREATE/UPLIFT we are a team of creative professionals working out of Topeka, Kansas. We began our agency in 2013 to help small businesses develop better content, and since then we have expand to add more services and industries to our growing portfolio. We represent the self-taught DIYers and remain fans of things that inspire us.

As part of Create/Uplift, Gonzalez has been involved with organizing downtown events that support that goal, putting together fundraisers for the theater’s restoration and artist collaborations at the proposed plaza site to drum up awareness about its future. The plaza is definitely needed as a venue, and Jayhawk Theater will be an amazing setting once it’s restored to bring in a range of live music.

Marcy and Tobias have been collaborators since 2013, and been in business together since March 2016. Tobias brings experience and expertise in clothing design, graphic arts and music, where his production work has been nationally recognized. Marcy has documented the hip-hop music scene in the tri-city area for almost a decade. It was The Midwest Invasion, Marcy’s video start up, which came together with Well Cultured to form CREATE/UPLIFT.

One important factor in making downtown successful is getting the college community involved…
