ACHF Arts Education
Fifteen low-income teens ages 14-18 years old and 30 adults ages 19+ years old (for a total of 45 people) with disabilities affiliated with Highland Friendship Club will express themselves creatively through clay art. All Highland Friendship Club participants (100%) will create a unique clay art piece that represents an experience, emotion, or artifact that is meaningful to them and which will be displayed at The Show Gallery, Lowertown Saint Paul, Minnesota. Highland Friendship Club will measure participation through its class registration system. It will survey participants on their experience with the clay arts classes.
The project promoted creative self-expression, encouraged friendships, and instilled pride in HFC members’ accomplishments when their artwork is displayed. HFC staff surveyed participants on their experience and found 100% of participants felt a sense of pride in their accomplishments.
