“Creative Hands” Exhibit

These HANDS will truly warm the heart and heal the spirit! Come and experience first HAND this magical "forest" of one-of-a-kind HANDmade art HANDS that hang from the ceiling! This will be a visually stunning exhibit, a HANDS-down show favorite that will make people clap their HANDS in delight! But we need more HANDS! In other words, we’re short-HANDed!

While we look for other traveling exhibition venues, we will continually accept HANDs to add to our permanent collection and would like your creative HAND to hang with all the others; it is HANDy way to show off your art.
Think of all the fun ways to make a HAND!

Here's the chance to use up some of those old kid gloves you'll never wear again. Stuff them, embellish them, dye them or paint them--then WOW! Or try tracing your HAND onto stiffened fabric, embellishing the dickens out of it, and satin stitching all around it? You could do a HAND of you, your child, your grandchild, your significant other...the possibilities are endless. Your HAND can hold something, assume a graceful position, or just be flat out there like a traffic cop. But however you make your HAND, please remember to design it according to our rules and guidelines. We know we can count on you!

Creative Spirit Center wishes to thank Karoline (Karey) Patterson Bresenhan for picking up this project and making it happen at the festivals and for the wonderful pun phrases that she wrote on this page!
