An Art Exhibition by Creative Citizens ArtClub, curated by artist and facilitator Rachel Mimiec

This exhibition, There Is Only Make, is inspired by Rule No. 6 from artist and educator Corita Kent’s famous list of creative rules:

“Nothing is a mistake. There’s no win and no fail. There is only make.”

Following this idea, the exhibition celebrates creativity as a process, where experimenting, making, and learning are more important than getting it ‘right.’

The ArtClub meets weekly in our Glasgow studio. Members create art together around a kitchen table, exploring printmaking, developing their ideas, and learning from professional artists in a supportive environment.

This is the group’s third exhibition, following the success of Walking The City and The Kitchen Collective. The group visits exhibitions, researches art, and brings in guest artists to help members grow creatively.

Participants say:

“Art helps me understand my emotions. It’s really therapeutic.”
“When I’m there, it’s like stepping into another world. It brings out my creative side.”
