“The arts are essential to development and self-expression. At Creative York, we
are dedicated to inspiring the community through arts education, gallery
experiences, and outreach programs.”
Creative York a 501-c3 located in York, Pennsylvania is dedicated to reaching thousands of creatives annually. This
fantastic organization has been open for the past thirty years and is the home of the Kerlin Gallery, The Art Lab
