lose yourself in the arts. find self in community.

We serve people with special needs through meaningful arts and community activities

A Safe Place

For Creative Expression for Adults with Special Needs

We provide a safe and supportive environment for individuals with special needs to explore their creative talents. Many individuals with disabilities face significant barriers to participation in the arts, including inaccessible venues and a lack of appropriate resources.

Creating Community

Through Opportunity to Engage in the Creative Process

The arts and cultural activities unify people. They reach across real and imaginary dividing lines, creating a shared experience for all of humanity. Personal interpretations are shared & relationships are forged.

Wondrous Benefits

That bring meaning, purpose and fulfillment to people

Studies have shown that arts programs reduce stress and improve the mental health of participants. Additionally, participants find intention, direction and belonging through strokes of color, rhythm and movement, and other forms of creative expression.
