Creativity Emerges and Transforms Lives
Self-Taught artists take center stage at Heidi Gallery for the Summer Symbiosis Exhibit.
This exhibit challenges preconceived notions of what individuals with intellectual/developmental disabilities can do.
This exhibit challenges preconceived notions of what individuals with intellectual/developmental disabilities can do.
The answer is: they create, they imagine, and they persevere.
Matheny Arts Access and The WAE Center at JSDD have worked to help artists discover their voice, and their creative force.
In this ongoing discovery process artists can manifest their chosen identity, moving past a disability that may have defined and confined them.
It is the work of these artists that are featured in Summer Symbiosis.
Please join the artists for an opening reception on Sunday, July 13 from 2 – 4 pm.
