Mission and Vision

Mission

The Gateway Community Development Corporation is the catalyst for arts-driven economic revitalization of the U.S. Route 1 corridor and the surrounding communities in the Gateway Arts District. Gateway CDC works in the communities of Brentwood, North Brentwood, and Mount Rainier, and works in collaboration with several partners to ensure the success of the entire Gateway Arts District.

Vision

The Gateway CDC envisions the Gateway Arts District as the heart of Prince George's County's arts beat. The CDC will work to make this vision happen, and ensure that the Arts District is lively, walkable, and bikeable, where people of all ages and backgrounds are shopping in local stores, eating at cafés and restaurants, and enjoying arts and entertainment venues. We are determined to make sure the Arts District will be recognized as the national model of a successful creative economy.
