As Autism Acceptance Month comes to a close, we're happy to share the journey of our Arts Work program at People, Inc.! This year marked a milestone as Erich, Stacey & Chaz proudly showcased their artwork in the the NY Alliance for Inclusion & Innovation’s Juried Art Exhibit & Reception as part of their Annual Conference. Erich's bold "Bikini" paintings exude happiness, reflecting his joy in sharing his art: "I get excited knowing people will see my artwork. It makes me feel good when people see my art. It makes people smile." Although Stacey's love is painting florals, her second love for beaches & fruit reminds us of summer. "I really like to paint flowers like daffodils, tulips & marigolds. They're beautiful & make me feel happy!" Chaz's art is usually filled with cryptic imagery & text, but his "Futurama" piece is more straightforward. "I feel happy doing art. I like when people look at my work, it makes them happy too." Their words & creations reflect the transformative power of art. Let's continue to champion inclusion, creativity & diversity.
