The Color & Culture team taking the stage at the 3rd Annual Latino Health Summit.

Color & Culture is a multicultural, multichannel, full-service, marketing and advertising agency that inspires public and private sector clients to rethink their marketplace. We’re adept at creating integrated marketing campaigns that effectively utilize multiple layers of channels, woven together by a cohesive strategy. This ensures all components work in unison to create impact, results and momentum for your brand.

But who we are does not stop at marketing. We’re also changemakers, focused on leveling the playing field in all aspects of life for everyone. Our team realizes the full gamut of inequities experienced by our marginalized neighbors here in PA and across the country that must be addressed — access to quality health care, opportunities for education and employment, and affordable housing to name a few. We take on social challenges by forging first-of-their kind initiatives with corporate and nonprofit partnerships, focused on a unified mission of educating, empowering and uplifting underrepresented communities.
