The Arts Work Program at Autism Services, Inc. was created by Executive Director Veronica Federiconi in the fall of 2002. The Arts Work mission is to give people with autism the opportunity to get involved in the visual and performing arts. Communication is one of the challenges our participants face; visual art provides them with a preferred means of expression.

Artists are given many choices and encouraged to try new things, but the main objective is for them to find materials they feel comfortable with and create art-making processes of their own. Since beginning the program we have mounted over 50 art exhibitions throughout the community, and beyond. Experience the opportunity to bid on/purchase the art produced in this program to help it continue and grow.

Tickets are $35 and include passed hors d'oeuvres and beer/wine.
