NEW FOR
2017! ARTISM EXHIBIT
Art empowers by offering a window into the way autistic individuals
perceive our world and gives audiences the chance to understand, transcend, and
work together.
The 2017 Vancouver Walk has launched an ARTism Exhibit
to provide the many artists on the autism spectrum the opportunity to have
their work showcased and enjoyed by our many walk patrons. Our goal is to
have many creative voices heard through their art, both on our entertainment
stage and thru this exhibit. Artists on the autism spectrum continue to enrich
our lives and experiences, and we are proud to present platforms from
which they can be recognized for their achievements and gifts.
We are presently collecting names and images from artists that we hope
to incorporate into our Oct 1 ARTism event
and to highlight through-out the year. We now invite artists to submit their
projects for viewing. Artists of all ages are welcome. If you, a member
of your family, someone you know, or someone you represent or work with is an
artist on the autism spectrum, we would love to hear from you.
For further information or to complete an application please contact the
BC Walk Manager.
