The Creative Commons – Free Community Art Group
The Creative Commons is a free, open-to-the-public community art group for Adults
Led by our art therapists in a non-therapy capacity, this group offers a relaxed space to make art, explore new materials, and connect with others through creativity. There’s no pressure to share, no clinical processing, and no artistic experience required — just a supportive community space to express yourself.
This is not an art therapy group or meant to be therapeutic. It’s simply a chance to gather, create, and enjoy the process alongside others in the Bay View community.
Join us, bring a friend, and make something that brings you joy.
Space is Limited so Contact Haley or Amanda Directly to Reserve Your Spot.
August: Craft Club is Starting!
Saturday 08.22.2026 2:00-4:00PM
Welcome to Craft Club at Creative Commons!
Craft Club is a welcoming, low-pressure community studio hangout designed for adults to unwind, connect, and enjoy the simple process of making. Unlike project-specific workshops, this is a flexible, "Bring Your Own Project" (BYOP) space—whether you are knitting, sketching, collaging, mending, or trying out a brand-new medium, you are welcome here. Hosted by Amanda, this inclusive space is focused on recreation, shared creative energy, and community connection (please note: while hosted by an art therapist, Craft Club is not art therapy). A variety of crafts will be provided by TTW.
May: Emotion Creatures
Wednesday 06.03.2026 6:30-8:30PM
Emotion Creatures invites participants to get curious about their inner world through creativity, play, and reflection. In this Creative Commons activity, emotions are reimagined as clay creatures with their own form, personality, needs, and story. By shaping an emotion into something visible and tangible, participants may notice new things about what they feel, what makes those feelings grow or shrink, and what support they might need. No artistic skill is required—just openness, imagination, and a willingness to explore.
