Founded in 2002, the James Gang is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit grassroots community-building organization based in Iowa City, Iowa. The organization is committed to fostering interdisciplinary community development through helping people realize and share their own creative ideas, expressions, and ambitions.

The organization operates on the idea that by helping creative individuals from disciplines as diverse as the arts, sciences, humanities, politics, media, and business, it can create projects and institutions that foster community interaction while helping these individuals find resources to make their ideas a reality.

The James Gang's primary method to pursue its mission is to create community projects – commonly called endeavors – designed to be frameworks to help individuals pursue their own creativity. The James Gang has carried out many projects and activities through the community since its founding, but is most often know for its endeavors including The 10,000 Hours Show, Public Space One, The Exodus Music Festival, The Composing Charity Series, and The cFree Wireless Project among others.
