Latest Activity
Establish a creative event in DC, a private sector sponsored version of the Creative DC Summit (www.wdcep.com/aboutus/php) that the city of Washington DC held on September 5, 2007 Which both Neil Takemoto and Rasul Sha'ir attended.
Gaia brings back to clubbing the notion of 'entertainment' and showmanship. Based on the live-infused dj set, Gaia provides creatives with the tools and venue to dazzle crowds in new and exciting ways night after night. Help us do it right!
Now you can take your favorite music in one place

Profile Information
- What is your interest in the CreativesDC beta community?
- I'm interested in meeting other individuals involved with visual art, performance art, design, architecture, film, and animation.
I'm also interested in meeting local artisans and craftspeople. The projects that my company does often require unique and interesting items so I'm always looking to meet skilled weavers, textile designers, carpenters, and painters.
- How are you using your imagination and original ideas to enrich our economy and culture in DC, and beyond? Or, how would you like it to?
- In 2010 I will launch a full service Interior and Product design firm in Washington, DC. My vision for the firm is that it will serve as a new channel for, small scale, local artisans to get their crafts viewed and purchased by a larger audience.
- Bio (html accepted)
- Christopher Boutlier was born on a dairy farm in Louisiana. At the age of 12, Chris decided that he had no intention of spending his life dredging the family pond to keep leeches off the cattle. In order to escape the 200 acre farm, Chris agreed to attend an all boy's boarding school. During one weekend trip, Chris stumbled into the High Museum of Art where he saw Turner's "Slave Ship." He was never the same.

- What place/scene/event do you think DC needs to attract more creatives?
- The craft-oriented scene is completely overlooked. DC has some of the most talented weavers, furniture artisans, and product designers in the US.
- Who referred you? (This is how we give credit!)
