Open Creative
OPEN Creative is not just our name, but our approach to marketing.
We believe that great work is the result of OPEN minds and collective thinking.
That listening is just as important as leading. That our clients are partners – not just paychecks. And that big ideas don’t just come from big agencies.
We’re a team of creative junkies who love helping our clients to develop a strong brand with compelling work. Our services include logos and branding, websites, print and digital marketing, photography and media services.
Cheryl
Colorado 14ers Supporter
“I work in the fundraising side of things, and I wanted to tell you how great your year-end piece is! Short, sweet, to the point (lots of them, all of which are fabulous), visually appealing …
really gets the message across of the impact you and your staff and volunteers have had. Great work!”
Maureen Murphy
Jackson Hole Chamber Director of Special Events
“This creative team has gone above and beyond the expectations for the JH Chamber of Commerce, especially with the signature event, the Fall Arts Festival. Both Tess and Julie are easy to work with and aren’t satisfied with anything but the best! Am thankful to have their guidance and expertise in all of our promotion and marketing.”
Lloyd
Colorado 14ers Executive Director
“You’d be amazed at how many donors I speak with who are blown away by the reports.
Always heartwarming in terms of how the message lands with people and the quality of the product. I’m always so appreciative of what you two bring to the project.”
Our Team

Julie’s strong graphic design and art direction background has evolved into what can be described as ‘elegantly simple’. Her unique ability to integrate a client’s communication goals into a fresh approach has been the key to the agency’s success.
Our Portfolio
More about OPEN Creative
We foster creativity,
promote action &
create change.
We are a small team and we believe that’s a good thing. Being small assures that our clients receive one-on-one time with the same team members from conception to completion. We’re also the business owners and decision makers with a vested interest in the success of our clients.
OC&CO is a full-service creative shop providing branding, advertising, communications and media services in all media formats. Whether we’re working with an existing brand or creating an entirely new brand, our goal is to develop a solid platform from which you can effectively and consistently tell your story across all of your marketing.
Our careers span more than 25 years, and have included high-profile clients with large budgets, and low-profile clients trying to do the best they can with a limited budget. Funny how the later is much more fulfilling to us!
We’ve also had the opportunity to see the world of marketing evolve, and to cultivate lifelong relationships with vendors, freelance talent, and with our clients.
