Since 1996
The Art Experience (TAE) was founded in 1996 by six art and art therapy students who believed that the creative process had the power to transform lives. The studio welcomed all members of the community, encouraged creativity, and sharing with others. Staff provided encouragement, while guiding guests beyond their comfort zone into their own creativity.
​
TAE is still known for its supportive environment and allowing community need to shape its programming.
​
Experiences include specialized programs for individuals with special needs, inclusive community programs, college internships, exhibits, an outdoor festival called Art Fish Fun, and other special events.
TAE is an inspiring place where all are valued for their abilities and the curiosity that drives creative endeavor.
We are committed to strengthening our community through art.
WE CARE so let us work together to make your dream fundraiser a success!
There are many organizations that cannot afford the overhead cost of large conferences or programs to boost funding in support of adequate services per their specific communities. Washington Events has positioned itself to become the liaison to supported Start-Up Crowdfunding conferences, for Michigan Membership Associations and Nonprofit Organizations.
Washington Events specifically designs conferences to help position qualified membership associations, and nonprofit organizations to be able to support consistent funding to help better their programs, run their agendas, and get exposure for their services to the citizens within the community in which they serve.
