Project Description:

Since 1994, the Vanderbilt Kennedy Center has sponsored exhibits of art by persons with disabilities in order to demonstrate and celebrate the diversity of creative talent. Each year the Center hosts two to four exhibits of art in a wide range of mediums in the lobby gallery of the Kennedy Center on the Vanderbilt campus. Opportunities to exhibit in the community are welcome as well. Some exhibits feature one or two artists, while other exhibits include the work of many. Often exhibits are organized in partnership with local, state, national, or international organizations. The Vanderbilt Kennedy Center also sponsors community art workshops and forums.
