Westfield Montgomery ( 7101 Democracy Blvd, Bethesda) recently gave a retail space on the upper level of the mall to local community non-profit, Creative Outlets Art Center, to further their commitment to connect with the community. Zeina Davis, Marketing Director for Westfield Montgomery tells us, “we are so honored to have such a wonderful community resource in our center. Creative Outlet’s mission of providing art as a wellness tool is a meaningful addition and have already loved working closely with the arts center on engaging and exciting art programming for families.” Creative Outlets has already made a big impact on events and programming including providing complimentary holiday crafting classes through the holiday season at the mall’s pop-up “Jingle Lounge”.
About: “Creative Outlets Arts Center is a community arts space whose focus is on bringing “Art as Wellness” to the community. Our partnership with Westfield Montgomery has allowed us to serve the community in a variety of ways like exhibiting local artists’ work, creating a space to take a break and draw, and offering art experiences for your next private event all in a convenient location. Created by local art educators, all our programming is connected to national art standards and social emotional learning indicators utilizing art to improve the wellness of our community. Come out for some of our upcoming events and experience how engaging in creativity impacts your wellness!”
