Creativity Explored annually serves over 130 studio artists with developmental disabilities. For six months, Lisick spent time observing and conversing with them in the Creative Explored studios and on community outings. The project culminated with publication of ten “Tell You What”  ‘zines written by Lisick, with advice and images provided by 42 Creativity Explored artists. Subjects covered include romance, fashion, patience, home, and friendship.
