OUR CULTURE

OUR CULTURE

Dedicated to delivering amazing. United in growing together. And having fun while we're at it.

Forged in our early startup years and tempered over decades of working side-by-side solving creative challenges, our culture is at the heart of all we do.

Our Philosophy

The ThemeWorks team believes we learn best through hands-on experience, and a roll-up-our sleeves approach. Mentorship through encouragement, respect, and support brings out the diverse talent and expertise of our team. Only together, through inclusiveness, can we ignite the creativity and innovation necessary to meet challenges and execute their solutions with the quality and precision for which we are known.

Our Values

The values we share serve to guide and inspire us as we collectively apply our talents and passions to create inspiring experiences.

  • Growth:  Listen.  Seek.  Learn.  Share.
  • Innovation:  Explore.  Try.  Champion the new.  Question the status quo.
  • Integrity:  Take actions that make us proud.
  • Commitment: Deliver as promised.
  • Long-Term View:  Think long-term.  Prepare our future today.
  • Together:  Embrace a diversity of thought, people and perspectives.

Giving Back

At ThemeWorks, we do not think of “service” as an obligation but an opportunity. Engaging with and supporting our local community, industry, and beyond is a privilege that connects us with people both near and far.

Through our community involvement and service, we’re striving to make a positive and lasting impact.

Some of the organizations and activities in which we actively participate include:

  • Give the Kids the World 5K
  • LifeSouth race weekends
  • The Hippodrome Theater (supporting Gainesville’s growing arts community)
  • Local food and blood drives

Strength in Diversity

Inviting different perspectives into the room strengthens the outcome of any project. Our team and clients come from diverse backgrounds and hold unique points of view — and we deeply value each one. These different voices allow us to experience new ideas and broaden our understanding of the world around us.

Our Community

High Springs and the Greater Gainesville area, Florida

Adventure, unsurpassed natural beauty, world-renowned educational institutions and medical facilities, nationally ranked sports teams, year-round theatre and cultural events, vibrant night life, blue skies and sunshine throughout the year. High Springs, Florida is home for ThemeWorks, and we wouldn’t want it any other way.

You may have never been here, but once here, you’ll want to call it home.

Consistently ranked as one of the most livable cities in the United States, High Springs is nestled halfway between Florida’s two coasts. With the Nature Coast on the Gulf of Mexico to the west and the white sandy beaches of the Palm Coast along the Atlantic to the east, High Springs is ideally situated to enjoy the best of Florida.

The neighboring city of Gainesville, who’s population includes 53,000 students of the University of Florida, one of the top ten universities in the nation, has given birth to a growing technology hub, and multiple developing industries. This forward-thinking spirit partnered with the area’s natural beauty and outdoor lifestyle creates a community of active individuals who enjoy all that life has to offer.
