Center for Creative Works
The Center for Creative Works (CCW) is a unique, creative day service program with a focus on arts and arts-based skill-building, education, in-house-generated vocational opportunities, and community involvement for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Each day, CCW offers participants opportunities and choices on many levels of involvement from growth and promotion of personal bodies of artwork to skill building. At CCW, we are committed to an environment in which participants learn, engage, create, and take ownership and pride in their work and in their place in the community. The Center for Creative Works was formerly the Lower Merion Vocational Training Center.
Kelly, an artist who is deaf and blind, finds a new way to communicate at RHD’s Center for Creative Works. Since 2011, artist Kelly Brown has been weaving sculptures at CCW, using her entire body to create pieces that have been exhibited across the country.

The Center for Creative Works
This past spring, prior to things falling apart in March, I collaborated with Kristin Lindgren’s course called Critical Disability Studies. That class has a hands-on component where students work with the Center for Creative Works (CCW) in Ardmore, Pennsylvania.
The CCW is a place for people with intellectual disabilities to practice and learn about art. Here is their mission statement.
I loved working with the CCW and Kristin’s class. I like that our Maker Arts Space at Haverford College has a focus on students but we also ask how students can foster relationships with local stakeholders. The idea of the Maker Arts Space as a place for community building is a core component of our Maker Space.
During the CCW visits I taught the 3D Scanner and a 3D sculpting software called Meshmixer (free by the way). Students and the CCW visitors 3D scanned themselves then altered their scans on the computer.
I also developed a method for laser cutting silhouettes and had the visitors decorate and paint on the canvases. Our theme for the Spring was self-reflection and self-portraits.
Below are a few images from the visits prior to mid-March. I hope that once COVID 19 is under control we are able to resume a collaboration with the CCW.
