More Than A Thousand Words features work by ten renowned and newly emerging artists who have practiced at Creative Growth. Across a wide variety of processes and subject matter, the inspiring and thought-provoking work reveals each artist’s diverse experiences and considerations of the world. Art is the shared language that connects us all.

Making art is, and always has been, a powerful mode of communication. When we create images and objects to visually tell stories, we often express something deeply personal about ourselves, laying bare our experiences, ideas, and feelings. We reveal aspects of who we are, individually and collectively.
