An exhibition titled 'A Mosaic of Color' has opened at the Leepa-Rattner Museum of Art in Tarpon Springs, Florida, featuring 49 works by 17 member artists of Creative Clay, a St. Petersburg nonprofit. The show, on view in the Interactive Gallery through July 19, includes paintings, mixed-media works, and drawings by artists such as Hanna Vogeler, JJ Hitch, and Scott McIvor, whose painting lent its name to the exhibition. An opening reception is scheduled for June 4.
This exhibition marks Creative Clay's first museum show beyond museum shops, representing a significant milestone for the organization, which has supported artists with disabilities since 1995. By partnering with a respected regional museum, the exhibition amplifies the visibility and recognition of artists with disabilities, challenging assumptions about who belongs in museum spaces and underscoring the importance of inclusive arts programming.
