expand their talents and success, and explore new ways to engage imagination.  

In 2024, the GCD acquired a remarkable historical site in the center of the district, surveyed the creative community to plan the best use of the space, and determined what resources it will take to realize this vision. The GCD’s new Center for Creativity is a 14,000+ sq. ft. building that will house creative spaces and works, performance and movement areas, galleries, event areas, classrooms, studio and maker spaces, flex and multi-purpose activities, and a retail shop to sell works by local artists.

The Executive Director will have the exceptional opportunity to be on the ground-floor of this building project and will be integral in redeveloping this historic structure to meet the organization’s vision and objectives as we grow the GCD from a virtual service organization to one with a permanent home that will serve as a beacon of creativity and innovation for the entire city. While not required, special consideration will be given to candidates who have experience with facilities
management and/or oversight of building renovations.

With a current population of over 110,000, Greeley is the fastest growing city in the state of Colorado, and its population is increasing at a rate more than double the national average. Greeley’s growth is attributed to new businesses, schools, parks, and shopping, and the city’s healthcare, professional services, energy, and construction sectors are also growing rapidly. Located approximately one-hour north of Denver, and with its close proximity to all the amenities that the state capital has to offer (international airport, major sports franchises, world-class arts, and exciting nightlife) and, within an easy drive of the beauty and recreational activities of the Rocky Mountains, the quality of life in Greeley is second-to-none. 

Greeley is also very proud of its long tradition of excellence in education. From its outstanding K-12 schools for which Dr. Deirdre Pilch was recently named the 2025 Colorado Superintendent of the Year, to the rapidly expanding and state-of-the art Aims Community College, to the University of Northern Colorado, especially known for its exceptional performing and visual arts programs, Greeley is an ideal place for families seeking a nurturing and creative environment to learn and grow.  

We are a vibrant, thriving, multi-cultural city, and the Greeley Creative District is perfectly poised to achieve its mission of cultivating a community that inspires,
