Partnership Announcement: Express Employment Professionals Sponsors the 18th and Vine Arts Festival

We're thrilled to announce that Express Employment Professionals, a leading global staffing provider, has joined as a sponsor for the 18th and Vine Arts Festival. With their commitment to community involvement, diversity, equity, inclusion, and a long history of helping people find meaningful employment, Express Employment Professionals is a natural partner for our festival.

Express Employment Professionals was founded in 1983 by Bill Stoller and Bob Funk, with a simple yet powerful vision - to help as many people as possible find good jobs by helping as many clients as possible find good people. What started as a modest endeavor has grown into a global operation, with offices in the U.S., Canada, South Africa, Australia, and New Zealand. Annually, Express employs more than half a million people across hundreds of franchise locations worldwide.

Not only is Express a frontrunner in the staffing industry, but they are also deeply invested in their local communities. Their ethos of "Building Success. Building Hope." is evident in the volunteer work and financial support they provide to their communities. They go beyond their role as a staffing agency, striving to help communities, organizations, and individuals succeed.

An integral part of Express Employment Professionals' DNA is their dedication to Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging (DEI(B)). They value each person's unique backgrounds, characteristics, and perspectives, fostering an environment that makes everyone feel valued and heard. Their DEI(B) Council continually works towards creating an environment that fosters awareness, inclusive practices, and innovation, celebrating the diversity within the Express global footprint.

As they celebrate their 40th year in 2023, Express Employment Professionals continues to make its mark in the staffing industry, aiming to reach $5.5 billion in sales by 2025. Their ongoing commitment to helping people and businesses succeed has been a key driver behind their impressive growth.

Express Employment Professionals' sponsorship of the 18th and Vine Arts Festival is a testament to their dedication to celebrate diverse cultures, experiences, and histories. Their support will significantly enrich our festival experience for attendees and participants alike.

We believe that this partnership embodies what the 18th and Vine Arts Festival represents - a celebration of community, creativity, and diversity. Express's commitment to these values aligns perfectly with our festival's mission, and their support enables us to bring the beauty, creativity, and talent within the arts community to a larger stage.

We're truly grateful to have Express Employment Professionals as part of the 18th and Vine Arts Festival family. We're excited for what this partnership will bring to our festival and our community, and we look forward to making the festival an unforgettable experience for all involved.

This partnership is an open invitation to other businesses to join us in supporting the 18th and Vine Arts Festival. Together, we can create a celebration that educates, inspires, and leaves a lasting impact on our communities. Join us on this amazing journey!
