Summary

I sit down and chat with Matt Meeks of Catholic Ventures and Anthony D'Ambrosio, Head of Product at Catholic.Store and founder of Catholic Creatives.

Catholic Ventures acquired Catholic Creatives because Matt Meeks saw the movement that Anthony is his team had begun and wanted to ensure that it would keep rolling. Anthony and Matt have worked together and are now collaborating on bringing creative and talented folks together in Catholic.store where you'll find big and small Catholic publishers, jewelry makers, artists, and Sock Religious.

There is a new Catholic aesthetic in town and it doesn't look like shitty modernist Crayola-level crap. It's excellent and big-time Catholic publishers are finally taking notice.
