Celebrating Artists!

One of Ohio’s most inspirational fine art exhibits; Art & Soul is a juried art exhibit celebrating the creativity and talent of Ohio artists with developmental disabilities, one of the few exhibits of its kind in Ohio.

Partners For Community Living and Toward Independence come together for our juried art exhibit that celebrates the creativity and talent of Ohio artists with developmental disabilities, one of the few exhibits of its kind in Ohio.

A panel of professional artists choose forty five pieces of art to be showcased in the Art & Soul exhibit. Art work selected are professionally framed thanks to the generous support of Sketches Frame Shop Beavercreek, Ohio.

In celebration of these talented artists, Partners For Community Living and Toward Independence partner with Sponsors, Art Patrons, County Boards and art programs throughout the state of Ohio. We celebrate and thank all who support and  an opening reception and Awards Ceremony.

Our exhibit is funded 100% by sponsorships and donations. More than $1000 in cash awards is presented each year to award winners. Artists also have the opportunity to market/sell their art.
