See It: The Community being helped

In 1998, Danielle Despathy won a BRICK Award for her work as Director and Co-Founder of Creative Clay in St. Petersburg, FL. Creative Clay is a nonprofit cultural arts center that empowers children and adults with disabilities and special needs with the means to express themselves through art and to sell their work in the community. Since the center’s inception, over 10,000 people have benefited from creative Clay’s programs: over 350 students have exhibited their artwork and over 150 original works of art have been sold.
