Community Creations 2002
Community Creations:
May 17 - 27, 2002


Community Creations is an annual student exhibition at the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum that celebrates the collaboration between the Museum and six community organizations in the Boston area: Alternative School at Little House; Boston Arts Academy; Hawthorne Youth and Community Center; Mission Safe Program; Paige Academy; and Mother Caroline Academy. Students from these organizations participated in Community Partnerships, a year-long multi-visit education program at the Gardner Museum for local teens and younger children. Inspired by the Gardner Museum and its collection, the students created two- and three- dimensional works of art for this exhibition. Their installations in the Museum's Special Exhibition Gallery and Monks Garden include: decorative chairs, an installation made out of grass, designer candlesticks, a clay dragon sculpture, self-portrait paintings and a ceramic tile installation.
