Creative Surplus, an initiative of Some Assembly Required, is the overflow of untapped ideas, talents, and projects that live beyond a creator’s main work — the off-stage, off-season, and after-hours energy where new possibilities are born. It’s the raw material of innovation waiting to be resourced, refined, and released into the world. This assessement tool helps you name it and take your next step.
