Brady Gill started his professional career as a summer camp counselor where building playful community was the name of the game. He joined the LATE NITE ART team as a lead facilitator in 2018. Since that first summer, Brady never looked back, continuing his life's work of helping people connect with themselves, their communities and the world around them.
Brady's work began with children, directing summer camps, after school programs and even working as a recess consultant touring the country teaching schools how to have physically and emotionally safe playgrounds.
One of the co-creators of Camp Grounded, the first ever summer camp for adults, Brady has spent the last several years creating programming that combines the playfulness of childhood with the growing complexity of how to be a happy and fulfilled adult. This movement of connection is essential in our modern times, where digital communication is quickly replacing human contact and our lives are more and more defined by what we do, rather than who we are.
From creating parties and events, to leading professional development for Fortune 500 companies, tech start ups and educational institutions, Brady is doing everything he can to make the world a more playful and connected place.

A word from our founder.
Adam Rosendahl in his TEDx talk on unlocking deeper connection.
Core Values
ART IS A VEHICLE
We use the arts as a vehicle because it is a universal language to solve problems, build connections, and explore possibilities. We believe it creates more meaning in our lives, our workplaces, and invites our imagination into the room.
FUN IS THE FRONTIER
Whether we are talking about marketing, conflict resolution, branding, team building, or company values - we make it fun. When people have fun, they are more engaged, willing to push their comfort zone, and their learning deepens.
EVERYONE IS CREATIVE
It's in all of us. It goes way beyond the arts: It’s the way we dress. The way we think. The choices we make. When people transcend the fears that block their creativity, all sorts of possibilities emerge.
COLLABORATION IS KEY
We know it’s a buzzword, but we believe that collaboration is a doorway into new worlds. When we combine forces with people different from us, we can create things we never thought possible.
BE HUMAN(E)
A face-to-face conversation can melt walls and transform a relationship. We are never too busy to see others as human beings, share our stories, and be kind to one another.
