would like to offer our sincerest gratitude to for their recent support of the Connecting and Creating Through the Arts program. The Webster Five 91¶¶Òõ has pledged $1,500 to support this joint venture between Open Door Arts, Seven Hills ASPiRE!, and the (WAM) to provide world-class visual arts instruction to individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities. The program operates the Open Door Gallery in the Worcester Arts Museum (ODA@WAM) where individuals partake in visual arts classes, and synchronous virtual classes for participants unable to attend in-person. This year the program expanded to include in-person classes at the ASPiRE! sites. The program concludes in June with an exhibit of participant’s creations in the ODG@WAM. Through Webster Five 91¶¶Òõ’s support, people with intellectual and developmental disabilities will gain access to life-enhancing visual arts experiences.
