Our Community Arts Program is our core program at Creative Clay

ABOUT: The Community Arts Program serves adults with developmental and/or intellectual disabilities. This arts program provides professional artist mentorship for enrolled member artists in the performing and visual arts in a vibrant studio environment. Visual artwork created may be selected to be exhibited in Creative Clay’s on site Good Folk Gallery. When artwork is sold, member artists earn a 50% commission. Depending on the goals the member artists set for themselves, they may have the opportunity to visit local galleries, museums and other cultural venues to expand on their studio experience.

COST: Creative Clay accepts applicants receiving Medicaid Waiver LSD3 (1:10) and LSD1 (1:3) funding. Non-Medicaid Waiver applicants may choose to private pay at $65 per day. Limited scholarships are available for those who qualify.
