Current Projects
Identity and Branding
The story of the Calumet Region is beginning to be captured in a regional Identity and Branding project. A brand that unifies the region will have tourism and economic benefits, will draw more visitors to the region, and will raise awareness among residents about the many incredible places and stories the Calumet has to offer.
After an Identity and Branding exercise with the Calumet Collaboration’s Communications Committee held in May 2018, the Communications Committee identified available resources that tell the story of the Calumet region. The committee also determined work that needs to be done to create the Identity and Branding for the Calumet region. The Calumet Collaborative is currently in the process of applying for grant funding that would allow for completion of this project with the help of a consultant. The consultant's output would be a roadmap that will be used to bring the Identity and Branding of the Calumet to life. This includes community engagement on a proposed identity and brand, wayfinding products and design specifications, and a toolkit for wayfinding implementation.
