Executive Director’s Progress Report
Dear Crealdé Members, Please join me and the Crealdé Board of Directors in celebrating the completion of the 46th year in our organization’s history. Thank you for your participation in and support of Crealdé School of Art. As a long-time serving director, I am proud of what Crealdé has evolved into since its founding in 1975. The work of our teaching artists touches so many people every day and our larger projects really do connect communities, break down stereotypes, and bring understanding into our complex society. Crealdé is truly a place where everyone can feel welcomed, learn, and progress at his or her own pace. It’s also a place where dreams of creative expression really do become reality. Please let me summarize the unique role Crealdé School of Art fulfills in Central Florida’s cultural landscape today: • We feature a curriculum of over 125 visual arts courses and workshops in digital and traditional film photography, painting, drawing, printmaking, ceramics, sculpture, jewelry, glass and fiber arts to students of all backgrounds, taught by a faculty of over 50 professional artists and guest instructors. • We host ten annual exhibitions in three galleries and offer five traveling exhibitions, an extensive sculpture garden, and nine collaborative public art installations in the community. • We honor diversity and the value of cultural preservation through innovative programming that uses the visual arts to inspire individuals and empower communities. Through an extensive permanent collection of over 200 framed archival photographs and oral histories as well as public art installations, we celebrate Winter Park’s historic African-American community at the Hannibal Square Heritage Center. • We provide extensive ongoing community outreach programs and scholarships to economically disadvantaged individuals and underserved communities throughout Central Florida. This commitment expresses the ideal that the arts are for everyone, and that every individual and every community has a story worth telling. • We offer unparalleled opportunities for emerging artists to be mentored by seasoned professional artists and to work in a studio environment.
During the COVID crisis, which continued into 2021, Crealdé was rewarded with unprecedented community support through both financial generosity and an eagerness to return to our classrooms and galleries. Highlighted achievements from the last year include: • A complete rebound in enrollment to pre-COVID-19 levels, with a tuition income of $686,310—a 61% growth over 2020, with 3,349 students in our tuition based programs!

• Total donations and memberships are up 26.6% to $208,405. This includes the United Arts of Central Florida Collaborative Campaign for the Arts, the Annual Year-end Campaign which this year was dedicated to the sculpture and ceramics studio expansions, individual gifts and fundraisers.
Executive Director’s Progress Report
• In its 14th year, the Hannibal Square Heritage Center hosted its 12th Annual Folk and Urban Art Festival as well as the 6th Annual Juneteenth Celebration: Knowing, Remembering and Shifting the Narrative, with guest speaker and Civil Rights Activist Dr. Lavon Bracy, held at both the Winter Park Community Center and the Heritage Center, in partnership with the Winter Park Public Library. • All major exhibitions at our Alice & William Jenkins Gallery along with the Hannibal Square Heritage Center featured artists and topics of diverse cultural backgrounds, including Jane Turner: The Evolution of an Artist—Paintings and Sculptures That Tell a Story, Preserving the Past and Looking Towards the Future: A Celebration of Hannibal Square, One World: International Women Artists of Florida and As I Am. • As I Am, organized by guest curator and accessibility expert Hope McMath from Jacksonville, featured professional Florida artists with disabilities in the Jenkins Gallery, as well as the traveling exhibition Forty4Forty: A Celebration of Arts4All Florida in the Showalter Gallery. Arts4All Florida is an organization who provides, supports and champions arts education and cultural experiences for and by people with disabilities. These exhibitions brought attention to Crealdé’s long range goal to improve accessibility across our campuses, communications and programming.
Personally, I serve on the Crealdé Board to encourage the arts in our community. I am very proud of what we do and how far we have come as a non-profit, community-based arts school. I am most proud of Crealdé’s commitment to seek out those special communities of residents who have traditionally not had access to the life enriching power of the visual arts and humanities. I continue to be inspired by our excellent staff and faculty and our wonderful volunteers that do the daily work of making a difference for individuals in our community.
• Exhibitions celebrating the work of our students and emerging artists included the 40th Annual Juried Student Exhibition, Emerge: New Works by Panting & Drawing Fellowship and Studio Artists, and the 38th Summer ArtCamp Student Exhibition. The arts make us better people, help create civilized communities, and bring us together in dialogue as citizens of a democratic society that values diversity in expression, lifestyle and cultural heritage. As a member, your support has enabled Crealdé to continue fulfilling its inclusive mission of community service and quality of life enrichment to through the visual arts and humanities. I want to thank you on behalf of the children in the free after school art classes in underserved communities, the seniors who look forward to their weekly art class with one of our talented artists, the visitors to our free exhibitions on our main campus and at the Heritage Center and the thousands of past and present students who benefit from our affordable art curriculum. Without your support and grant funding, a majority of students would not be able to afford these experiences.
With kind regards,
Peter Schreyer CEO/Executive Director

School History
Crealdé Arts Inc. was founded in 1975 by William Jenkins to promote
local artists by providing studio and gallery space. With profits earned from sales and rentals, Jenkins established ArtReach to provide art experiences to seniors and disabled individuals. By 1978, Crealdé evolved into a teaching center and became a 501(c)(3) organization. In the 1980s, three artistic departments were established, and the curriculum was expanded. A fine arts gallery was established in 1980, and in 1996 the gallery was named after Crealdé’s founder and his wife. Throughout the 1990s, Crealdé expanded on its mission, established a scholarship fund, launched the new Emerging Artist Program and deepened its commitment to make the arts available to the widest segment of the population. By the late 1990s, Crealdé had established three permanent outreach sites to conduct free classes for children, teens and seniors in underserved communities. In addition, more than 20 collaborative public art projects ‑ murals, sculptures and photo-documentaries – have been conducted through partnerships with other nonprofit organizations. Crealdé’s free galleries host artists from throughout the United States and the world to exhibit, present lectures and conduct workshops for the community. In 1999-2000, Crealdé undertook an aggressive capital campaign to construct its first building addition in more than 20 years. Nearly $200,000 was raised including a matching Cultural Facilities Grant from the State of Florida. The 3,000-square-foot expansion features a second painting studio, the Showalter Hughes Community Gallery and lecture space, and a covered porch overlooking beautiful Lake Sterling. In keeping with Crealdé’s mission to provide outreach and foster cultural diversity and preservation of our cultural heritage, Crealdé deepened its longstanding relationship with the City of Winter Park in 2007 by opening the Hannibal Square Heritage Center, which stands as a tribute to the past, present and future contributions of Winter Park’s African American community.

School History
Through excellent classes and workshops taught by our amazing instructors, Crealdé has given me opportunities to further my growth as an artist. I have also been able to make wonderful connections with like-minded artists and friends… The kindness and support I have received cannot be bought and it is given freely without reservation. I also realize that it is only through its board members, staff, instructors, donors, and volunteers that Crealdé will continue to be there for us. –Deborah Umphrey Painting & Drawing Studio Artist
The facility serves as a home for The Heritage Collection: Photographs and Oral Histories of West Winter Park. In partnership with academic institutions and other nonprofit organizations, the center also presents exhibitions and programs that focus on local history, cultural preservation, African American experience and Southern folklore. With the addition of this new venue, Crealdé’s budget reached the million dollar mark for the first time. Out of the desire to increase its participation in the economic vitality of the community, Crealdé secured its first Cultural Tourism Funding grant from Orange County Government in 2007, which has continued, together with the City of Winter Park Redevelopment Agency, United Arts of Central Florida, and the State of Florida to be Crealdé’s largest funders. In 2010, Crealdé completed its second campus renovation, totaling $220,000, funded this time by an Orange County Cultural Facilities Grant and matched by contributions from an enthusiastic Crealdé membership. The renovation included campus re-roofing, air-conditioning, and a new campus entrance, featuring a large mosaic mural. In the same year Crealdé also entered a new government partnership with the City of Winter Garden, enabling us to offer a limited number of tuition-driven classes at the new Jessie Brock Community Center, strategically located near several growing west Orange County and Lake County communities. Crealdé celebrated its 40th anniversary in 2015 with a series of exhibitions that focused on the artistic success of our alumni and also highlighted national artists whose work celebrates America’s cultural diversity. In the spring of 2017 we celebrated the 10th anniversary of the Hannibal Square Heritage Center, recognizing key people responsible for its first decade of success. Creadé continues to enhance its efforts to be more inclusive, including major efforts to feature diverse artists in its free exhibitions and events in three galleries and at the Hannibal Square Heritage Center, and marketing through diverse media outlets to include an audience, faculty and administration that reflects the broader community of Central Florida. Between 2015 and 2019 the school also focused on campus upgrades and beautification that included paving the parking lot, upgrading bathrooms, enhancements to jewelry and sculpture facilities, the introduction of glass and fiber arts, as well as adding substantial new pieces to the sculpture garden, plus a rebranding campaign that included a new logo, two new websites, and a beautiful new campus welcome sign. In response to the COIVD-19 pandemic, major campus safety improvements were implemented throughout 2020 and 2021, including new HVAC systems with UV filtration, touchless bathrooms and covered outside seating areas. Decorated with festive luminarias, the Heritage Center welcomes visitors to one of its many free community events. Photograph by Rick Lang 2021 ANNUAL REPORT 5
Mission Statements
Mission Statement for Crealdé School of Art Crealdé’s mission is to stimulate the creative process inherent in each individual through hands-on education in the visual arts and to cultivate a lifelong aesthetic appreciation. This mission is realized through comprehensive studio art instruction and interaction with professional working artists; presentation of gallery exhibitions and lectures; related art activities that stimulate art exploration and specialization including an extensive outreach program that services at-risk minority youth, individuals with disabilities and seniors; and fostering cultural diversity and understanding of pluralism and preservation of our cultural heritage.
Mission Statement for Galleries and the Contemporary Sculpture Garden The primary focus of the galleries is to present thought-provoking, quality exhibitions and programs. Installations reflect a variety of media and represent the work of local, regional and national artists. As an extension of the community-based school of art, the Alice & William Jenkins Gallery, Showalter Hughes Community Gallery and the Contemporary Sculpture Garden are committed to providing educational experiences to students, members and Central Florida’s diverse population.
Mission Statement for the Hannibal Square Heritage Center In partnership with the community and the City of Winter Park, Crealdé School of Art will operate the Hannibal Square Heritage Center as a tribute to the past, present and future contributions of Winter Park’s African American community. Through innovative programming in the arts and humanities, the Heritage Center will become a neighborhood focal point, archive and home to The Heritage Collection: Photographs and Oral Histories of West Winter Park. Through exhibitions and diverse educational programs, the center inspires all Central Floridians and visitors to our area to respect, explore, participate and become more aware of their own community’s history and heritage.

Program Curriculum
Crealdé School of Art continues to provide an extraordinary array of artistic opportunity for the Central Florida community across our three campuses: the Hannibal Square Heritage Center in Winter Park; the Jessie Brock Community Center in Winter Garden; and our main campus in Winter Park.
In 2021, Crealdé returned to full capacity at its three teaching sites in Winter Park and Winter Garden. Free outreach programs at two community centers operated by Orange County Government remained closed. Crealdé also continued its two new programs to provide alternatives to the traditional classroom setting—a curriculum of private classes with 20 faculty members and Crealdé@Home, a small selection of online classes for youth and adults. Our tuition-based Art Education Curriculum consists of the following: • Five seasonal sessions for adults and five 6-week sessions for children totaling approximately 600 classes annually, taught by a faculty of over 50 artists. VOLUNTEERS Main Campus Alaisha Champagnie Holly Cabot Becky Clisch Cheryl Cuellar Eric Elbert
• An average of 50 workshops led by Crealdé’s talented faculty and visiting artists, including landscape painting and drawing, sculptural welding, in-depth ceramics projects, jewelry making and both film and digital photography. Every year, thousands of individuals of all ages and backgrounds participate in Crealdé’s studio classes and related programs.

Ceramics and Sculpture Our 3-D curriculum features instruction in various media and subjects, such as figurative and abstract sculpture, bronze casting, coppersmithing and functional ceramics including wheel throwing and handbuilding. The facility includes gas, raku and electric kilns, as well as a professional bronze foundry in a separate building. The program has a liberal open studio policy, enabling students to work independently. Visiting Artist Workshops have included special topics such as Using Colored Clay in Unusual Ways and Production Pots Big and Small. A series of weekend workshops include welding, hand building and stone carving. Collaborative projects have produced pieces on permanent display in Crealdé’s Contemporary Sculpture Garden.
Fiber Arts, Jewelry and Glass Introductory Fiber Arts programs include classes in thread painting and papier mâché. Crealdé offers classes in traditional and contemporary quilting methods including patchwork, appliqué, longarm workshops and fabric collage at the Hannibal Square Heritage Center. Jewelry offerings include repoussé techniques, metal folding and forging, and cold connections and riveting, as well as a popular four-week Introduction to Jewelry Design and Fabrication. Crealdé’s Glass program includes faculty-offered classes in stained glass as well as guest artist workshops in glassworking.
Young Artist Program
I’m going to use this photo as my album cover when I become a famous singer. -Crealdé Summer ArtCamp Student, 2020
The Young Artist program represents roughly 24% of Crealdé’s total enrollment. This program serves children and teens ages 4 to 17 in more than 30 classes on three campuses in a variety of media. Established as the first of its kind in 1982, Crealdé’s Summer ArtCamp provides for hundreds of children the opportunity to participate in one- or two-week sessions of hands-on art instruction in six mediums. The summer concludes with the Summer ArtCamp Exhibition, featuring artworks from individual campers and large-scale collaborative works mentored by the camp instructors. The art is on display for two weeks in the Showalter Hughes Community Gallery on Crealdé’s main campus. The Summer Program includes a Young Artist Immersion component where students can select their two favorite visual art mediums allowing them to deepen their studies, knowledge and experience.

Hannibal Square Heritage Center
In partnership with the community and the City of Winter Park, Crealdé School of Art operates the Hannibal Square Heritage Center as a tribute to the past, present and future contributions of Winter Park’s African American community. In 2017, we celebrated the Heritage Center’s tenth full year of operations. Through innovative programming in the arts and humanities, the Heritage Center is a neighborhood focal point, archive and home to The Heritage Collection: Photographs and Oral Histories of West Winter Park. Through visiting exhibitions, community-based public art exhibitions and diverse educational programs, the center inspires all Central Floridians and visitors to our area to respect, explore, participate and become more aware of their own community’s history and heritage. The Heritage Center hosts regular tuition-based classes, including digital photography coursework, but primarily exists as a service to the greater community and an outreach center for youth and senior classes as listed above and for other community arts-based services as follows:
The Heritage Collection: Photographs and Oral Histories of West Winter Park Crealdé’s most extensive outreach project is an on-going community-based project celebrating the heritage, character and contributions made by Winter Park’s African American community. During annual Community Heritage Days, the Crealdé team of historians, cultural anthropologists and documentary photographers collaborate with intergenerational members of the historic Hannibal Square neighborhood to collect historically illustrative personal photographs and corresponding oral histories to tell the story of the community. This project is modeled after similar efforts conducted by the Los Angeles County Library and represents the first collection of its kind implemented in a Central Florida community. After the COVID-19 shutdown in 2020, the Hannibal Square Heritage Center reopened with normal business hours throughout 2021, hosting ongoing tours with groups and individuals.

Crealdé offered its free Hands-On After-School Art Classes for children and two Art Sampler Classes for seniors weekly at the center, in partnership with the Winter Park Community Center. For a second year, Heritage Center Manager Barbara Chandler led a year-end initiative called Light Up Hannibal Square, bringing together community partners and artists for an outdoor holiday celebration and open house. The center remained open during the holidays to accommodate increased visitors. The Heritage Center was prominantly featured in a book by Christian Kravagna and Cornelia Kogoj, Professors of Post Colonial Studies at the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna, Austria. The cover of the book featured Crealdé’s Community Pride in Hannibal Square mural in Shady Park. Written in German and published in 2019, the book is entiteld The American Museum: Slavery, Black History, and the Struggle for Justice in the South. The first chapter, translated, is The Museum, a Method of Defending One’s Culture: Community Museums in the Tourism Landscape of Orlando, and features the Hannibal Square Heritage Center along with the Wells’ Built and Zora Neal Hurston Museums. For the visually impaired, the center features an audio kiosk with braille buttons, telling the history of Hannibal Square and a sampling of the stories presented in the Heritage Collection: Photographs and Oral Histories of West Winter Park.
Hannibal Square Heritage Center
Hannibal Square Community Workshops with Visiting Artists Select artists exhibiting in the Heritage Center Visiting Exhibition Series provide free community workshops. Past artists include the Smithsoniancollected Ruby C. Williams and Mr. Imagination, Missionary Mary Proctor, Gee’s Bend quiltmakers Louisiana Bendolph and her mother, Rita Mae Pettway, and sweetgrass basketmaking workshops with Barbara McCormick and LaQuetta Smith. In 2019 the center featured a series of free quilting classes with internationally exhibited local fiber artist Lauren Austin, whose work is also in the center’s permanent collection; Lauren’s classes continued until the beginning of the pandemic and returned in early 2021.
Twelfth Annual Hannibal Square Heritage Center Folk & Urban Art Festival The festival celebrates Central Florida’s richly diverse culture through artwork, educational entertainment and music, featuring the works of more than 25 folk and urban artisans. 2021 performances included “Ask a Griot” Storytelling with Don Laurin, an art workshop for children presented by Kiddies Carnival of Orlando creating carnival headpieces and armbands, followed by a children’s parade, live percussion band Orlando Unity Rhythm Section, a performance by local bass player David Holder, and an empowerment performance by Singer/ Songwriter Carlene Mitchell, dedicated to Black Men, Women, and Children, in lieu of civil unrest, The Evolution of Hip Hop by Groovin’ Nicki, and wheel throwing by Crealdé ceramist Belinda Glennon. A soul food truck offered delicious refreshments and ethnic food. Admission is free.
The 6th Annual Juneteenth Celebration
The Heritage Center is certainly a beacon of light that brings dignity to the community, as well as inspiration to all who visit from near and far. I truly appreciate and was moved by the wonderful exhibition of photographs and stories as told by residents from Winter Park’s historic African American community. The Hannibal Square Heritage Center is a destination that I would recommend without reservation to those visiting Florida. –Martin Luther King, III Atlanta, GA
Held at both the Winter Park Community Center and the Hannibal Square Heritage Center, in partnership with the Winter Park Library, the 2021 program was entitled Knowing, Remembering and Shifting the Narrative, and featured guest speaker and Civil Rights Activist Dr. Lavon Bracy. In addition, the community enjoyed a free Father’s Day Breakfast outside in the park.

Galleries & Lecture Series
Crealdé serves its mission to make the arts inspiring, engaging and accessible by providing the community with free exhibitions featuring visiting and local artists who often provide educational lectures and workshops alongside their exhibitions. Starting with the reopening of the school in May of 2020 Crealdé instituted a COVID-19-safety protocol for our exhibition openings, which continued throughout 2021, and allowed 15 visitors into each gallery for 15 minutes, with one-way traffic and refreshments served outdoors. This approach was warmly welcomed by patrons and allowed for up to 150 attendees per opening event.
The Alice & William Jenkins Gallery Formally opened in 1980, the mission of the Alice & William Jenkins Gallery is to exhibit the work of noted and established Florida artists, as well as to introduce national and international artists to the Central Florida region. Each of the three diverse exhibitions is professionally designed by Crealdé’s Senior Curator of Exhibitions or a guest curator. In 2021, the Alice & William Jenkins Gallery hosted three diverse exhibitions under the leadership of Crealdé’s Curator of Exhibitions, Barbara Tiffany including One World: International Women Artists of Florida, from January to May; 40th Annual Juried Student Exhibition, from June to August; and As I Am, from September through midJanuary, 2022.
Showalter Hughes Community Gallery

Established in 2000, the Showalter Hughes Community Gallery highlights four to five exhibitions annually, featuring work by students, faculty, emerging artists and outreach programs. The gallery features shelves where ceramic fellowship artists display their work, and also serves as a classroom for member and community events with seating for 80. 2021 exhibitions included four exhibitions under the curatorial direction of Barbara Tiffany, featuring the work of students, faculty, emerging artists and community outreach partners. Exhibitions included Helen Bennett and Ken Austin: A Tribute to Two Central Florida Legends, January to April; Emerge: New Works by Panting & Drawing Fellowship and Studio Artists, from May to August; the 38th Summer ArtCamp Student Exhibition, curated by Belinda Glennon, during the month of August; and As I Am, from September to January, 2021, curated by Hope McMath.
Contemporary Sculpture Garden Established in 1997, the lakeside Contemporary Sculpture Garden is located on the grounds of Crealdé School of Art’s main campus and is open to the public. A self-guided tour leads visitors through the attractively landscaped campus and approximately 60 pieces of outdoor art and educational panels. The sculptures are used to teach field trip students about the diversity of expressive styles and durable media available to the sculptor. Recent additions include three sculptures by Central Florida artist Sandro Perez, as well as Pulse Remembered, a tribute relief sculpture made from twice-fired clay. The creation of this memorial was initiated by Senior Faculty member Doug Bringle, and included nearly 40 contributors, ranging from novice to accomplished, and 12 CREALDÉ SCHOOL OF ART
Galleries & Lecture Series
The Hannibal Square Heritage Center is a treasure in Central Florida. Since the 1880s, Hannibal Square has been a historically black neighborhood, contributing to the leadership, faith, culture, and diversity of our state. As a testament to these contributions, the center was founded in 2007 to honor Winter Park’s African American legacies. Now, the center serves as a hub and archive, allowing continuous exploration through local oral histories, exhibits, and photography. I have been proud to support the HSHC and am honored to serve Hannibal Square residents in the Florida Legislature. Not only is the center an important preservation of African American history in our community, but it also serves as a catalyst for courageous conversations about race, gentrification, and the future of Central Florida.
from first-time visitors to long-time Crealdé family members.
Hannibal Square Heritage Center Visiting Exhibition Gallery Established in 2007, the galleries at the Hannibal Square Heritage Center host three annual exhibitions that explore local history, cultural preservation, the African American experience and Southern folklore through educational and visual arts mediums including documentary photography, painting, sculpture and textiles. Crealdé presented Jane Turner photographed next to her painting, two visiting exhibitions at the The Maiden, The Protector and the Offering of Eggs, Oil on Canvas, 36x50 in. center: Jane Turner: The Evolution of an Artist—Paintings and Sculptures That Tell a Story, from February through May; and Preserving the Past and Looking Towards the Future: A Celebration of Hannibal Square, from mid-June through January, 2022. Always on display is The Heritage Collection: Photographs and Oral Histories of West Winter Park, as well as the Hannibal Square Timeline juxtaposing significant local and national historic events impacting African Americans. Also on display is The Sage Project Phase II: Hannibal Square Elders Tell Their Stories with a series of 17 new contemporary portraits by Peter Schreyer and oral histories by Fairolyn Livingston and Mary Daniels. The project recorded and honored Hannibal Square residents in their 80s and 90s, and augmented the original 2012 Sage Project, which was Crealdé’s tribute to Hannibal Square for the City of Winter Park’s 125th anniversary. Also featured in the permanent collection are several community-created artworks that are the result of collaborations with noted folk artists including Mr. Imagination, Ruby C. Williams, Missionary Mary Proctor, quiltmaker Lauren Austin, and Rigoberto Torres, who created the much-loved life-like sculpture of Tuskegee Airman and local hero, Richard Hall.
Traveling Exhibitions Exhibitions created as a result of Crealdé’s award-winning outreach and gallery programs become part of our archives and are available to travel to other venues for display. In 2020, the newest addition of Crealde’s long-running teen documentary photography projects, Storytellers XVIII: See Through Our Eyes, which debuted at the African American Museum of the Arts, came to the Hannibal Square Heritage Center. The Lake: A Documentary Exploring the Land and People of Lake Apopka traveled to the Orange County Regional History Center, along with a selection of previous Storytellers projects, as part of their Accidental Historian exhibition.

Outreach & Scholarship
Since 1995, Crealdé has taken the opportunity to use the visual
arts as a means of connecting communities, fostering cultural awareness and promoting understanding. As part of its mission, Crealdé’s outreach programming sustains an unwavering commitment to serve every community we enter. Our outreach and scholarship programs emphasize working with underprivileged children, at-risk teens and low-income senior citizens. Each class or project introduces the student to the specific art medium, then, through a public exhibition or installation, shares the participants’ achievements with the community. Crealdé outreach programming includes the following:
Storytellers Teen Documentary Photography Program Ten-week classes use photography to give students ages 13–17 an opportunity to express themselves in pictures and words, while exploring their cultural heritage, neighborhoods, families and friends. Since 1996, Storytellers has been funded by six different private foundations, resulting in 18 completed projects and exhibitions at community sites. The projects are part of Crealdé’s Archive of Community-Based Documentary Photography, and individual exhibitions are periodically loaned for display in the community, including a showing at the state capital in Talihasee, the Museum of Arts & Sciences in Daytona Beach, and the Orange County Regional History Center in Orlando. The most recent Storytellers programs engaged students from the historic Spring Hill community in DeLand, in partnership with the African American Museum of the Arts.
Neighborhood Pride Public Murals Since 2000, Crealdé has produced seven privately funded murals throughout Central Florida. During these eight-week classes, young students ages 10 to 14 collaborate to create a public mural in their own community, helping to beautify as well as increase awareness of important themes such as non-violence, education, family and cultural heritage. In addition to the young painters developing their own styles and individual modes of expression, the program helps bring segments of the community together for a hands-on, shared experience.
Monument Builders Since 2001, young sculpture students have collaborated with their instructors to construct a permanent outdoor piece of art in neighborhoods throughout Central Florida. Themes include cultural heritage, non-violence and drug‑free living. A 12-foot-long, 4-foot-high Memory Wall created in 2008 with Mr. Imagination, a Pennsylvania-based African American folk artist, is permanently installed at the Hannibal Square Heritage Center. The Memory Wall, holding objects donated by community residents, is Winter Park’s first collaborative public art sculpture.
Art Samplers for Children Eight-week classes provide groups of students ages 5 to 10 with handson instruction in the fundamentals of art-making. Self-expression and self-esteem are fostered in the following underserved communities where Crealdé Outreach Programs are offered: The John H. Bridges Community Center in Apopka, the Maxey Community Center in Winter Garden and the Hannibal Square Heritage Center in Winter Park. All programs at our partnering community centers were temporarily stopped at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic in March of 2020 and remained closed through 2021. 14 CREALDÉ SCHOOL OF ART
Outreach & Scholarship
Free Art Programs for Seniors The Free Senior Art Sampler Class for ages 60 and up began at the old Winter Park Community Center in 2000 and is offered at the Hannibal Square Heritage Center in partnership with the City of Winter Park Community Center. Participants learn techniques in painting and drawing to produce artwork on canvas, paper and unconventional materials. Many of the participants have been in the program for years, committed to the process of learning art. Between 2015 and spring of 2020, Crealde taught the Hands-on Inspiration Fine Art Sampler for participants in Easterseal’s Day Break Program at the Miller Center in Winter Park. Day Break services adults with a decrease in physical, mental or social abilities and provides respire to caregivers. In 2020 the program was suspended due to COVID-19 and did not reopen for program partners throughout 2021.

The Alice M. Jenkins Scholarship Fund, founded in 1988 in honor of the wife of Crealdé founder Bill Jenkins, provides free classes to an average of 100 economically disadvantaged children and teens each year. In 2021, 35 scholarships, totaling $7,710 in tuition, were provided to 16 full Summer ArtCamp scholarships and 19 6-week Young Artist Program classes. Scholarship recipients typically come from as close as Winter Park and as far away as the farmworker communities of north Orange and south Lake Counties. The fund is replenished annually with contributions from private foundations and individual donors.
“A Visit to the Art Studio” Field Trip Program
It took a village, and we had a good village to work with. Look around you: We were all with you. We care. We don’t have a lot of money, but we have a lot of passion and dedication.” Mentor Audrey Fletcher-Lee, at the opening reception for Storytellers XVIII at the African American Museum of the Arts in DeLand.
The “A Visit to the Art Studio” Field Trip Program was led by Young Artist Program Manager Belinda Glennon. While 203 private school students participated in the field trip, the Orange County Public School field trips remained on hold. The visiting students enjoyed the opportunity to observe professional artist at work in their studios, tour the exhibitions in the professional galleries, walk through the lakeside Contemporary Sculpture Garden, and become artist themselves in a hands-on workshop to create a masterpiece to take home.
Workshops for Osceola Public Schools For the fourth year Crealdé partnered with Osceola Public Schools, to offer new virtual classes for 1,050 middle and high school students from Osceola County Public Schools.
Free Programming at Area Events Free community workshops for youth included the Winter Park Autumn Art Festival, Winter Park Sidewalk Art Festival, Kid’s Fringe Festival, our own Hannibal Square Heritage Center Folk & Urban Art Festival and Fusion Fest in Orlando—a newly added partnership wherein Crealdé instructors provided nine diverse art projects representing different regions of the world.

Civic Vitality
Economic Development and Community Partnerships Crealdé has been committed to creating civic vitality through the arts since its founding—before “creative place-making” became an important trend in community development efforts. This commitment has brought Crealdé into a position of leadership in Central Florida with a track record of longlasting partnerships, creating over 45 collaborative community projects in the past decade. Our diverse artistic programs – from children’s classes to exhibitions and public art projects – increase social, cultural and even environmental awareness and understanding among people of all ages, races and ethnicities. By celebrating the history and voice of a community through the visual arts, the Hannibal Square Heritage Center has gained the attention of the local community as well as visitors from around the world, helping the City of Winter Park to receive the prestigious America in Bloom Award for the past several years. Our advocacy for the African American community of west Winter Park and Executive Director Peter Schreyer’s role as the volunteer arts and culture representative on the city’s 2016 Visioning Committee led the city to embrace the importance of arts and culture, rebrand itself as the “City of Culture & Heritage” and invest in a “Be Inspired” campaign to highlight and celebrate Winter Park’s rich arts and cultural community. In addition, Crealdé’s economic impact has been measured at $3,159,184 through Americans for the Arts’ Arts & Economic Prosperity Calculator.

In January 2019, this multi-media mural, Love of Our Community was created by the Maxey Community Center Outreach students. This collaborative project is a depiction of what love for community, history, and family means through the eyes of these talented Winter Garden children. Many of the Maxey Community Center youth participate in a weekly art class provided by Crealdé School of Art and taught by Painting & Drawing faculty member, Patricia Byron.

Civic Vitality
Expanding Services to West Orange County and Lake County The once languishing agricultural city of Winter Garden has demonstrated its leadership by transforming into a thriving city with a focus on quality of life through arts and historic preservation, balanced with economic development. In 2010, Crealdé began offering a limited number of painting, drawing, and photography classes at Jessie Brock Community Center, a newly renovated recreation center near historic downtown Winter Garden. Located 15 miles west of the Crealdé main campus, it has successfully attracted students from the growing communities of Ocoee, Windermere, Dr. Phillips, and Clermont. Participation is so successful that one out of 10 Crealdé students is now enrolled in a Winter Garden class.
Creating Opportunities for Florida Artists and Businesses Crealdé provides part-time employment for over 50 artists as faculty, visiting instructors and curators; and engages paid visiting guest curators and artists as well as public art lead artists to instruct special workshops and projects. In addition to an administrative staff of ten (four full-time and six part-time), the programming for each of the school’s artistic programs is planned and administered by a part-time program and studio manager, who also teaches and uses studio space in the respective facility. A monthly stipend also is paid to a curator of exhibitions at our three galleries and the curator of the Contemporary Sculpture Garden. The estimated impact on the local economy, apart from tuition, is more than $1 million annually.
I wish I could send hundreds, thousands, millions of dollars, but even then that could not begin to compare to the contributions you have made to art and hearts; to children, adults, and to the community; to the Lake Apopka farmworkers and the Hannibal Square black community in Winter Park and the other communities that you have lifted up through your work; to raising awareness and preserving history; and to and for social justice. –Jeannie Economos, Pesticide Safety and Environmental Health Project Coordinator, Farmworker Association of Florida
Attracting Tourists to the Hannibal Square Heritage Center Since its opening in 2007, Crealdé has received high scores from grant panels for the quality of its work presented at the Hannibal Square Heritage Center and the Jenkins Gallery on the main campus, resulting in 13 annual Cultural Tourism marketing grants from Orange County through the Arts & Cultural Affairs program, ranging from $40,000 to $86,000. The Heritage Center also receives an annual $40,000 operating support grant from the City of Winter Park’s Community Redevelopment Agency. The reputation of the Heritage Center continues to grow, attracting cultural tourists with a special interest in African American history.
Invitation for Storytellers 18 exhibition in DeLand, FL, 2019, featuring a photograph by Naomi Graham of Kristianna Holcombe in the doorway of the 100-year-old J.W. Wright Building.

Crealdé School of Art offers students opportunities to develop themselves into professional artists. Through the Crealdé Fellowship Program, the Studio Artist Program, Cheryl Bogdanowitch Sculpture Scholarship and an additional adult scholarship award, students can receive mentorship, access to studios and free classes. In 2020, Crealdé provided 29 artists with a total of 103 free classes and half-price workshops – a $13,870 tuition equivalent. Artists in the Fellowship Program contributed over 1,350 hours of classroom, event and promotional support to Crealdé. All students are given the opportunity to exhibit and sell their work at annual art sales, the gift shop and a student exhibition.
The Fellowship Program Crealdé’s Fellowship work-study program, established in 1978, offers free educational opportunities to students in exchange for hours worked to maintain the studios, assist with children’s classes and festival workshops, help with gallery and community events and other responsibilities. Applicants are nominated by faculty members. Once approved, Fellowship students stay involved for one to two years. During this period, they can enroll in classes at no cost and have unlimited studio use. They usually complete their Fellowship with an independent study and a developed portfolio. The students volunteer approximately 30 hours per session and applications are accepted year-round.

Even as we blossom and grow, we never lose sight of what Bill Jenkins intended for Crealdé. We are dedicated to keeping his dream alive. –Peter Schreyer, CEO/Executive Director, Crealdé School of Art

The gallery is named in honor of former Board President Louis Hughes and wife, Arlene Showalter.

The Heritage Center stands as a tribute to the past, present and future contributions of Winter Park’s African American community. Kate Collins, Beach Elegance, Oil on Canvas
Crealdé has given me an amazing opportunity to learn all I need to be confident as an artist and pursue my dream. Outside of Crealdé I am confident in new avenues that wouldn’t have been possible before. So grateful for this opportunity to grow and I feel honored to be supported by so many talented, successful, and encouraging mentors. -Kate Collins, P&D Studio Artist 24 CREALDÉ SCHOOL OF ART
2009 Linda and Percy Maynard of Art Systems of Florida were honored with an Outstanding Business Partner Award for two decades of loyal service as volunteer board members and Crealdé supporters.
2009–10 A $220,000 campus renovation is completed, funded by an Orange County Cultural Facilities Grant and matched by contributions pledged by an enthusiastic Crealdé membership. A new front entrance is created and extensive repairs are made as well as beautification projects undertaken on the maturing campus.
2010 Crealdé enters a new government partnership with the City of Winter Garden, enabling the school to offer a limited number of classes at the new Jessie Brock Community Center, strategically located near growing West Orange and Lake County communities.
2011 Long-term board member and prominent attorney Cecelia Bonifay is elected Board President.
2015 Record enrollment experienced in the post-recession era coupled with increased private and public funding raises the organizational operating budget to surpass one million dollars.

2020 During the challenging COVID-19 year Crealdé experienced its first ever campus closure but also tremendous collaborative spirit and support from our staff, volunteers, students and donors. This year also marked the 25th anniversary of the organization’s CEO/executive director, Peter Schreyer. After a gradual reopening of the school in the summer, student participation and patronage was back to preCOVID levels by the end of the year.
