ARTS & ENTERTAINMENT ASSOCIATION
Chase your purpose. Be your legacy.
Arts & Entertainment Association
Founded in 2021, the Arts & Entertainment Association is an arts & media production company focused on consulting, producing for, & building with those who have talents, skills, or interests associated with the entertainment and/or art fields.
​
"Chase your purpose. Be your legacy."
It's more than a mission statement. It's who we are and what we believe.
We have a strong moral compass and steadfast integrity. We practice honesty, kindness, respect, responsibility, and fairness in all aspects of our lives. We are guided by our conscience to do what is right, even when it is difficult.
​
In our interactions with others, we are thoughtful, compassionate and seek to understand before judging. We treat all people as equals, regardless of status or background. Discrimination has no place in our hearts.
​
We operate with transparency and accountability. We admit our mistakes readily and work to make amends when we are in the wrong. When making decisions, we carefully reflect on the ethics involved, not just personal gain.
​
Our day-to-day life reflects our values. We contribute to community and try to leave things a little better than we found them. We stand up for justice and defend those who cannot defend themselves. At the same time, we are humble and do not see ourselves as superior. We remember that everyone is human and has room for growth.
​
We strive to emulate great moral leaders. We admire those who faced adversity with courage and responded with love.
​
Above all, we aim to be people of integrity who lives by our principles. We know that true character is revealed through actions, not words. While we are not perfect, we continue to learn and grow each day.
No matter how big or small, if this sounds like you, we would be happy to work with you to help you achieve your vision, chase your purpose, and be your legacy.
