Art changes lives. It changed the life of CREATE Arts Center’s founder Tamar Hendel when she was a young Jewish girl in hiding during World War II and inspired her to build a home for the artist in everyone.

 

In 1986 that inspiration became CREATE Arts Center, a nonprofit 501(c)3 nonprofit visual arts organization where our mission is to spark creativity, foster learning, empower individuals, and facilitate community connections through the visual arts.

 

Since our beginning, CREATE has welcomed more than 20,000 artists of all ages and backgrounds and helped them find inspiration through classes, camps, community events, and art therapy.
