The development of creative industries in modern conditions is a factor in revitalizing re-gional economies around the world. In Russia, the creation of Creative Industries Schools based on educational institutions subordinated to regional departments and Ministries of Culture has become an important tool for the development of creative industries. These schools not only train personnel for the formation of human potential in creative industries, but also act as an important tool for economic and spatial development of the region. In this article, on the basis of collected and sys-tematized data on commercial activity of creative industries enterprises in Tomsk region by cities, as well as analysis of the experience of creating one of the schools in Tomsk, we develop models of "translucent box", reflecting the impact of the School of Creative Industries as a whole, as well as its individual projects - "Sibirskaya Ne_provincia" and "Creative landing" - on the economy of the region. The results of the study show that from the position of the development of the economic space of creative industries in the region the center, the city of the "second echelon" and other cities are distinguished. Creative industries are created mainly in the form of individual enterprises, the key types of creative industries, which create new business production of software and computer games, film industry, fashion, design, jewelry, as well as education. The projects of the School of Creative Industries have a positive impact on the spatial development of the region through the realization of creative and social projects. This article will be useful for representatives of the creative industries community, including project offices, Creative Industries Schools, educational organizations, city, and regional administrations, as well as creative clusters to develop a system of cooperation and collab-oration. The results will be presented at the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum 2023 and at the Festival-Forum "Russian Creative Week 2023".
