Our Story

Our Mission

To strengthen the global creative economy by expanding the infrastructure, resources, relationships, and opportunities that make creative work more sustainable and wealth-building.

Our Vision

A global creative economy where people have greater opportunity to build sustainable livelihoods, businesses, ownership, and long-term wealth through creativity—and the support needed to continue making meaningful work.

Karnelian Luminare™ was created on the belief that creative work has cultural, personal, and economic value. We believe creatives should have greater access to the resources and infrastructure that allow them to build sustainable lives around their work without reducing creativity solely to its commercial potential.

Karnelian is interested in both sides of that equation: helping creativity thrive and helping creative people participate more fully in the value it creates.
