Mission and programs · 2024

• Research suggests that exposure and inclusion of individuals with disabilities within the general population improves outcomes in a variety of domains, including access to health care, employment, decreased isolation, improved community safety and decreased abuse. At Creative Clay, artists with disabilities receive training and participate in a vocation as professional artists alongside other working artists. We provide the individuals we serve with a sense of belonging and connection to St. Petersburgs arts community. Research further indicates that exposure is not enough to reduce prejudice toward individuals with disabilities; the quality of interaction significantly affects the attitudes of the public. When a Creative Clay member artist goes into the community, they do so as representatives of our organization and professionals with a unique perspective to share. Our member artists market their work at gallery openings, partner exhibits, on radio and television shows, fundraisers, art festivals and other collaborative community events, and they receive a 50% commission for every piece of artwork they sell. Creative Clay has provided local artists with disabilities, as well as people in healthcare settings, the opportunity for expressive, educational, and vocational arts experiences since 1995. The organizations wide range of innovative programs and special events celebrate community and the richness of our local and regional arts. Creative Clays daily studio and outreach programs serve over 100 unique individuals per year between the ages of 6 and 80. We estimate that approximately 2500 individuals within the community are impacted by our organizations gallery openings, festivals, workshops, and collaborative exhibits and events. 80% of the individuals who attend our daily programs have physical, cognitive and/or mental health disabilities, but all have expressed a desire to learn how to create art, hone existing art skills, work toward creating art that is gallery ready, market their art, speak with gallery visitors about their art, advocate for themselves as an individual in society who has a disability, and dispel myths that exist surrounding those with disabilities. Our seven programs include Community Arts, Transition, Creative Care, Artlink Apprenticeship, Summer Youth Arts Camp, Summer Studio and Open Studio.

Officers and directors · 2024

As listed in Part VII of the 2024 return, in the order the filer printed them. Each return names its own; this is not a roster the organization keeps with us.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all.

Grants made

No itemized grants to organizations. Schedule I is filed only by organizations that granted more than $5,000 to a recipient, so most filers have none.
