Creative Expressions

Creative Expressions is a holistic program addressing the physical, emotional, cognitive and social needs of the people we support. It teaches skills and techniques that give individuals with disabilities and other challenges tools they can use to interact and engage with others in the community.

By fostering creative development through the visual arts, music, and horticulture, individuals are encouraged to expand upon traditional methods of communication and explore alternate avenues of expression and interaction. Program participants are given the opportunity to create, build upon skills, express opinions, set goals, explore new media and engage in collaborative team building.

We have included several art pieces from our individuals that are available for purchase. Please click on each photo to learn more about the piece and the artist. Enjoy! *shipping not available for artwork purchased*
