I bought a skirt for $275, wore it a couple of times, and it fell apart. When I asked if they could fix it, they said it was "wearable art" and that I should feel lucky I was able to wear it. I did not feel lucky, I felt their artists should have some guidance so the fabrics they use don't fall apart after having been hardly worn, and the seams don't disintegrate. For this kind of price tag, a certain respect of the buyer, even if it's understood the sale helps support the effort, could be expected. Buying from a not for profit shouldn't mean the product goes in a trashcan so soon. I hope the artists there have a better experience than people trying to support the efforts of this institute.
Really amazing what they do here in terms of art and the community. Definitely worth checking out
A place that must be visited in LA at least once. The atmosphere is incredible. Most exhibitions will attract everyone. This isn't only an opportunity to spend exciting time, but also to make new acquaintances with interesting people.
I have purchase many ceramic pieces from the gallery and participated in a collage project. I am a local artist, collage and painting, and love to visit and often bring out of town guests. I am interested in volunteering.
In film production in working on a film called upheaval and in my ceramics class this is the crow that I have been making. I love it here
Six or seven stars would not be over-rating CG. A place that disabled adults can spend the day expressing themselves through art. How perfect is that? And the art they make is always interesting, evocative, and humanizes their plight. You might have trouble connecting with some of the artists in person, but the art is loud and clear. I'm so happy to own some CG pieces, and when my guests compliment something, I get to talk about CG, and what an amazing place it is.
Creative Growth is completely awesome. I've bought some of my favorite are pieces there, The program is amazing. The staff is nice. CG is worthy of your support!!
I am a caregiver for my brother who has a mental disability. I've been looking for a good, safe program to plug him into since Townehouse changed their business model. I suggested Creative Growth because he is extremely artistic. He was very excited, so I called Creative Growth and spoke to Cristina. She was very responsive and set up a tour and interview in October 2016. After the interview, she told my brother that he was a good candidate, but would need to come on a trial basis for a period of time. She also told him that she would figure out which day of the week he should come. She gave him a number of forms to fill out and told him to get a current TB test. He was eager to get all of this done, so shortly after the interview I took him to Kaiser to get everything done. It is February 2017, and I have emailed/called Cristina repeatedly— borderline groveling and begging. I am extremely disappointed that an organization serving the disabled would treat a disabled person in this manner. Over the years, I have been in touch with numerous organizations that serve the disabled and have never experienced this level of disregard and insensitivity toward a potential enrollee. Every encounter I’ve had in the past with Bay Area organizations that serve the disabled has been positive. They are generally ran by human beings who are down-to-earth and compassionate— people who are aware of the sensitivity of disabled people, understand their isolation, and know what NOT to do. In the meantime, my brother is still asking me if I’ve heard back from Creative Growth. Creative Growth, you are such a great disappointment.
If I lived in California I would love to work there. I love the idea and the wholesomeness of the place. I also really like the art of these people. I support and endorse you.
Great place to see great art, the gallery is right next to the artists workshop. I worked nearby and would stop in the see the gallery, amazing work, I felt alive after seeing the work,
