Impact: Feature Issue on Careers in The Arts for People with Intellectual, Developmental, and Other Disabilities

Description

An issue in the Impact series exploring careers in the arts for people with intellectual, developmental, and other disabilities. Authors review the history of art centers and their changing future, as well as the state of inclusion among people with disabilities in the professional art world, from performance to the visual arts. The work of nearly three dozen artists is featured or referenced in personal stories, photographs, and artist statements. A poem by Maya Angelou about visual artist William Britt is included, along with a recent conversation with the artist. How-to articles include insights from a California studio that has successfully placed many artists with disabilities in commercials, movies, and television shows.
