This quarter $500 went to Firehouse Arts, to help the Art of Possibility program an adults with disabilities arts program http://www.firehouseart.org/art-of-possibility/. Funding will offer developmentally disabled participants access to the transformative nature of art through gallery visits, informal docent-led conversations about the art work and a hands-on art activity that responds to the art or uses the same medium as the exhibition.
Thank you to all the great organizations that submitted a video proposal this quarter! As always, it was a challenging decision to pick just two organizations so if you weren’t selected, we encourage you to be on the lookout for the next relevant focus area and submit again soon.
