Creative Growth

Creative Growth is an internationally recognised studio and gallery space based in Oakland, San Francisco that provides space, opportunities and support to artists with developmental disabilities.

1. Creative Growth is in a comfortable financial position and therefore has a highly developed marketing programme, facilities and opportunities for artists working in the studio.

2. The organisation recently renovated their studio and gallery space. One part of this development that particularly stood out to me on my short visit was a sound proof room.

3. Creative Growth offers artists the opportunity to be part of a rug-making workshop that provides artists with hourly pay to create “limited edition” rugs for their onsite shop.
