Art With Heart
Creative York’s annual silent art auction, Art with Heart, will be held online with pieces also displayed in the Kerlin Gallery. This year we are bringing together 100+ artists as we salute the arts both online and in-person. This platform helps us to give back to our artist friends by promoting their works. Along with the pieces of art that are available for auction, visitors will also find artist bios, images of additional works of art done by each artist and links to their social media platforms. Support Creative York and our artists friends by bidding on artwork during this event! Learn more.

Hope and Healing: A Journey into Light
This exhibition will feature artwork based on Amanda Gorman’s poem “The Hill We Climb.” Artwork will be displayed in both the Kerlin gallery and The Art Lab. Artists are asked to submit up to three pieces in any medium using elements from Gorman’s poem that inspire or connect with them personally.
Creative York believes art is a place for hard conversations and positive creative expressions, understanding different viewpoints and healing. In the words of Toni Morrison, “This is precisely the time when artists go to work.” We are a welcoming organization that supports diversity and embraces people of every walk of life. Our organization inspires creativity through art in the community, promotes peace and dialog.
