“We believe the smARTkids program has had a remarkable impact on our students and school community and hope they are able to expand their outreach to other communities in need. Create Arts Center has been working with some of our Linkages to Learning sites for several years, providing free after-school programming for many children who otherwise would not have access to this resource.”

Over the past year, CREATE’s Art Therapy team has provided two-hours of weekly group therapy at Shepherd’s Table. Food insecurity, homelessness, addiction and mental illness are challenges that require an “all hands on deck” response to meeting critical needs. This is where partnerships with organizations like CREATE are so important. Their licensed therapists help our participants work through feelings of anxiety, depression and fear, by offering a safe, confidential and supportive space for people to express themselves through individual artistic expression.

Over the years, CREATE has hosted Community Bridges, both staff and program participants, for a variety of workshops not only focused on the joy of artistic expression, but on prompting our girls to discuss the challenges in the journey to develop strong senses of self and their place in the world, self-confidence and findng their authentic voice. Most recently, CREATE ran a workshop for our members and mentees with the goal of strengthening bonds.
