\ A Gala Supporting Creativity Explored

At Art Changes Lives this year, we are celebrating you — for making an unprecedented year of opportunities for our artists possible. With milestone acquisitions, exhibitions, and publications around the Bay, our community is experiencing the power of being seen. Join us for an evening like never before, as we harness this incredible moment to open new doors for artists with disabilities in 2024. 

 

SFMOMA Acquires Artwork from Creativity Explored, Creative Growth, and NIAD

As the Bay Area was the epicenter of the disability rights movement, so too is it the center of the movement for the recognition of disabled artists by the mainstream— and this momentous acquisition is just the beginning.
