About this Event
Celebrate the multitudes we all contain at Creativity Explored, a pioneering progressive art studio that partners with artists with developmental disabilities.
As part of San Francisco Design Week, join us for a lively happy hour and open studio mixer in our award-winning studio space, located in the heart of the Mission District.
This year’s theme, Multitudes, reflects the expansive creative worlds contained within every Creativity Explored artist and within the studio community itself. CE artists are painters, ceramicists, storytellers, designers, performers, collaborators, and visionaries—each bringing distinct perspectives, lived experiences, and modes of expression into the space. Their practices challenge conventional ideas of authorship, artistry, and communication, revealing the rich authenticity that emerges in welcoming environments.
Connect with fellow creatives, designers, and art lovers while surrounded by bold, original artwork created by Creativity Explored’s artists. Enjoy natural wine provided by our neighbors at Millay, light bites from our dear friends at the Bi-Rite Family of Businesses, and the inspiring energy of a studio that has celebrated the multitudes of artistic expression since 1983.
is an internationally celebrated nonprofit artist community and working studio where over 140 adult artists with developmental disabilities create, exhibit, and sell art. Founded in 1983 by art and disability pioneers Florence Ludins-Katz and Dr. Elias Katz, Creativity Explored’s programs and person-centered culture serve as an organizational model worldwide.
Located in the Mission District of San Francisco, Creativity Explored advocates for our artists’ work as a valid and increasingly important contribution to the contemporary art world. As a result, studio artists have seen their work exhibited in museums, galleries, and art fairs in over 14 countries and have directly earned over $2.3 million from their art. The recent acquisition by SFMoMA and OMCA included several artists from Creativity Explored and our sister organizations, NIAD and Creative Growth, illustrates the long-awaited cultural expansion of who is collected, who is discussed and who is represented.
