Method partners with Oakland, Calif., nonprofit on limited-edition collection

SAN FRANCISCO — Method will be debuting a limited-edition product collection that showcases the work of artists from Creative Growth, an Oakland, Calif.-based nonprofit art center serving adults with disabilities.

The collection features work from four artists paired with four new fragrances inspired by their work — palm garden, jasmine lily, cedar spice and vanilla sky — and will be available exclusively at Target through the end of the year.

“At Method, we truly view cleaning as an act of creative expression,” said Doug Piwinski, CMO of People Against Dirty, a company made up of Method and Ecover. “Creative Growth's powerful and meaningful work has inspired us to produce a limited edition collection that celebrates these incredible artists, and enables us to bring their art — and their stories — to more people.”

The art was commissioned from Creative Growth artists Aurie Ramirez, Allan Lofberg, Maureen Clay and Barry Regan.

“Our mission is to understand how everyone is a part of the creative community,” said Tom di Maria, director of Creative Growth. “Our partnership with method is about valuing how our artists can be seen as contemporary designers, and how their art can enrich the everyday experience of people.”
