My name is Crystal Ly, and I am a Collaborating Curator of the Creative Process! I currently attend UC Irvine as an art major aiming to do curatorial work. I’m so excited to share the insights of artists and other creatives in Irvine, as well as my own thoughts. I have a passion for supporting the arts in education.

I love engaging in visual arts discussions. With this being my primary focus of study, it’s invaluable to be able to hear of a project's progression from start to finish, candid accounts of artists' inspirations, obstacles, etc. I hope to pursue a career in curatorial work, so the nature of this collaboration greatly contributes to my understanding of the organizational aspects. I am also passionate about community engagement in the arts, and cultivating an awareness and importance for artists' contributions to society. Being involved in presenting these works to the local community is a fulfilling experience. Through The Creative Process I feel I am part of what make art meaningful and important to society.
