A Stand-Alone Website for a Stand-Out Organization
ChiArts® Foundation
When the ChiArts® Foundation was ready for a stand-alone website, they called Digital Pollen to showcase their good work – and to help explain their unique relationship with tax-funded partner, the Chicago High School for the Arts. Together, we created a beautiful new website that explained their most important values and differentiators at a glance – streamlining web work for their staff and garnering unprecedented, positive feedback from their Board.

Key Strategies, Insights, and Ahas!

Aha!
100% Donor-Funded Tuition
Because ChiArts® is a public high school, and does not charge tuition, they had never considered talking about themselves as having 'free arts tuition' or 'donor-funded tuition.' This new framing has become a cornerstone of their Messaging strategy and way they talk about themselves.

Aha!
Hours Breakdown
Learning the Arts + Academics hours breakdown throughout the school day was key in showing what the Foundation funded and what Chicago Public Schools provided.
