MATHENY ARTS ACCESS
Providing individuals with disabilities the freedom to create in the visual, literary, and performing arts.
The Arts Access Program at Matheny is designed to inspire, uplift, and encourage the aspirations of artists with disabilities. Using our state-of-the-art methodologies, we have enabled our clients to create pieces of work that are distinctly their own. Support our programs by purchasing our artist’s work or making a donation.
OUR PROGRAMS
Arts Access offers courses in all of the fine, performing, and literary arts. Using systems and techniques specifically designed for each discipline, clients can create pieces of work that are distinctly their own. On a daily basis, Arts Access fosters an environment of artistic creativity among the participating clients. The program improves the quality of life for the client artists and those around them. In addition, Arts Access programming aids in changing the perception about the capabilities and talents of people with developmental disabilities.
