As I walk by Creativity Explored I almost always get a smile sometimes even a "good morning" from one of the artists. It a nice way to start my day but it also reminds me not to put up defensive barriers while navigating through the world. I am often struck by the engaging exhibits they show at this place and how well done so many of the paintings, sculptures or other objects are. It's truly impressive and inspiring. it's also as interesting as the work I see in galleries, including many of the ones considered to be showing cutting edge work such as Southern Exposure or 111 Minna.
