We’re all seeking spaces of belonging and today’s Final Five Feature 📣 The Ripple Effect is developing a remarkable space for creatives! Check it and learn more below: 🎹🎨 🎤

The Ripple Effect (Ripple Hub) is a social enterprise that connects creatives to opportunity and resources. Our mission is to encourage artists to turn their 'no' into 'why not?' We are dedicated to meeting artists at every stage of their journey, offering space and support for both seasoned professionals and emerging talents still discovering their path. All artists are welcome here.

Ripple Hub began as an event production and curation company focused on showcasing artists from various platforms and connecting them with their communities. Over the years, we’ve curated hundreds of homegrown festivals and expanded our impact through The Ripple Creators Program, our youth initiative that teaches students about career opportunities in the creative fields. This program has made a significant impact in over five youth facilities by providing students with resources and education.

Our WHY for going through The Pitch is we are now expanding into a new Creative Hub, a brick-and-mortar space that will incorporate our event production and youth programming pillars, along with additional amenities.

This new facility will allow us to continue nurturing creativity and diversity while creating more job opportunities for artists across multiple mediums."

Welcome to our “Giving Flowers” Series
The first person we wanted to give flowers to while they can still smell is is Evita Colon also known as PoeticSoulQueen. She wears many hats mother , poet , chef , business owner but the greatest one of all is the impact that she leaves on her community. A creative , kind heart , and visionary is rare to get all in one person.Her latest album drops this Friday titled Alchemy of The Space Between where she takes you on a rollercoaster of raw emotions and lets you sit with those feelings as someone who amplifies black and brown voices and shows the transparency and duality of the intersections of her reality. If you would like to support or follow her journey follow her . If you been meaning to give her the flowers she deserves please drop 💐 in the comments. Evita not only are you special but you are gifted keep walking in paths destined for you !
