WHO WE ARE

Founded in 2015 by Rebecca Nichloson, RUMINATION GARDEN is a creative consultancy grounded in organizational development, communications, sustainability, arts and culture, and cultural advocacy. We work with mission-driven public, private, and nonprofit organizations to increase effectiveness and advance advocacy in diverse sectors.

In parallel, we create space for artists, creatives, and cultural workers to nourish their practice, build community, and make socially engaged work.

WHAT WE DO

Public Imagination & Advocacy Partnerships: We partner with nonprofits, foundations, social enterprises, businesses, and public agencies to design projects that advance public good. Our work combines systems analysis, narrative strategy, and design thinking to make research, expertise and data actionable, human, and grounded in empathy.

Creative Workshops, Retreats & Residencies: We design immersive spaces (virtual and in-person) for writers, artists, creatives, cultural workers, and leaders to create, reflect, and connect.

Communications & Strategic Planning: We offer communications and strategic planning consulting for organizations and businesses, supporting leaders as they set priorities, refine public language, and turn goals into practical plans.
