Creative Clay’s mission is to help people with disabilities achieve full and inclusive lives by providing expressive, educational and vocational experiences in the arts. “This will be the first exhibit at the Mahaffey Gallery since our Artlink exhibit in 2013,” says Creative Clay CEO Kim Dohrman, “so we are very excited to be partnering with them again!” The exhibit will be up throughout the summer.

“Sydney Lindell, Education and Outreach Coordinator from Bill Edwards Foundation for the Arts, and Amy Miller, President of Bill Edwards Foundation for the Arts met with our Director of Exhibitions, Jody Bikoff and me to discuss what kind of exhibit we might do. The natural fit was to have the theme be the performing arts.”
