Agency Updates: THIS JANUARY, ROKK Solutions and The RHA Group
NOOK, an artist residency created by DC ad agency THIS JANUARY, concluded the first chapter of its program, and is now looking for its second NOOK artist resident for the summer. This second iteration of NOOK will focus on fashion, supporting an artist “with a unique vision and the ambition to bring it to life. During their time in the residency, the artist will develop a capsule collection from concept to runway, including a still and film shoot produced by the agency.
Applications are now open and are due Monday, May 25. Check out this link for additional visuals for NOOK. Ideal candidates possess an impossible-to-define x-factor, the agency says, and “it doesn’t want anyone letting their perception of the boundaries of “art” or traditional parameters get in the way of applying, as they welcome all insiders, outsiders, and exceptional weirdos.”

According to the agency, she has extensive experience in corporate communications and strategic messaging, strengthening ROKK’s position as the sought-after communications firm and “established a reputation in Washington for guiding organizations through complex, high-stakes and constantly changing landscapes.” She previously worked at public relations firms Edelman and Ketchum Inc. and was an adviser to ROKK, Her past client portfolio includes leaders in industries such as education, retail, food and beverage, auto and finance.”
