Art by Minnesota Artists with Disabilities
Note: Reception (2pm) and VSA Awards (2:30), Sunday, 22nd Feburary

     All of the works in this exhibit were created by Minnesota artists with disabilities.  In some instances, their disability directly influenced their art. In other cases, their visual impairment, mental illness or physical disability had little or no effect on their work.  In all cases, the artists were chosen because of the excellence of their work and their continuing dedication to their art.


This exhibit is made possible by VSA arts of Minnesota, a non-profit organization whose mission is to promote quality, accessible arts experiences for people with all types of disabilities.  It is an affiliate of VSA arts, an international network of organizations headquartered in Washington, D.C. that “promotes the creative power in people with disabilities.”
