SPACE Gallery
“As a high-volume, multidisciplinary venue, we at SPACE always look to broaden, deepen, and evolve our arts communities, here in Portland, Maine, and wherever else we can reach. CreativeGround is uniquely helpful for that. This arts-focused directory helps make a ton of impact across our work, and often facilitates connections and provides information where social media can't.”
Nick Schroeder, Communications Manager
Wikepi Baskets
“The CreativeGround site provides a nice complement to my artist website. Exposure for my art in the larger New England marketplace is so important for me now that I'm earning a living as a full-time artist and consultant. I appreciate being able to proudly share my basketry as distinctly Native American.”
Theresa Secord, Native American basket maker
