A local organization is using expressive arts as an equalizer across cultural and economic barriers in Saratoga and Schenectady County communities.
C.R.E.A.T.E. Community Studios offers both online and in-person classes and workshops to provide a space where the benefits of art-making impact both the individual and the community. It formed in 2017.
Co-founder Julie Lewis says it’s been great to see the idea come to fruition to meet a need in the community.
The studio focuses on the process of art making rather than the end product, working to bring people out of isolation and into community.
