Creative Arts Ensemble is a multidisciplinary experience that provides adults with special needs the opportunity to be understood and heard, to execute self-expression, build confidence, and promote self-advocacy through a variety of performing and visual arts.
These sessions will focus on making 2D and 3D art with local artist Angi Cooper. Participants will work on improving dexterity and strengthening fine motor skills through creative paper play. We will finish each session with pizza, drinks, and social time with friends.
