Info

Creativity Explored was founded in 1983 by Florence and Elias Katz, on the principle that all people have the ability to create, and that visual artistic expression is a viable means to self-growth. Since that date, people with disabilities working at Creativity Explored have established themselves as talented artists making significant contributions to the Bay Area. Our second studio site was opened in 1995 to provide adults with severe disabilities an opportunity to create visual art. It has afforded both Creativity Explored and the public the opportunity to expand our understanding of the importance of art in the lives of people with disabilities. People have been able to view and purchase art in the studios since their inception. Our on-site gallery officially opened in March 2001.
