For over 6 years, ArtsWORK Indiana has been dedicated to making creative careers more accessible to adults and young people challenged by disability. We are an informal, statewide network of artists, educators, vocational professionals, and cultural organizations that provides:
career-related information and networking
peer-to-peer encouragement
increased awareness of Hoosier artists with disabilities and their contributions
Our participants range from just-emerging artists to experienced professionals, in varied art fields, with and without disabilities. ArtsWORK works closely with our statewide partner organizations and encourages leadership by people with disabilities.
ArtsWORK Indiana wants to make our state a place where people with disabilities have an opportunity to use their creative talents and get paid for it!
