Arts Access Exhibit at Arts Council of Princeton
The Matheny Arts Access Program,based in Peapack, empowers artists with disabilities to create art without limits. Regardless of their disabilities, artists are provided with the tools and materials needed to produce masterful works of art that are distinctly their own.
These works will be on view on Saturday, November 23 from 1 to 3 p.m. at an opening reception for an art exhibition and performance in the Solley lobby at the Arts Council of Princeton. The event is free. Guests will have the opportunity to view and purchase paintings that are as diverse as the artists themselves — from gestural abstractions and rigid, geometric forms to meditative color studies. The variation in styles and themes is representative of the individuality of each artist, and proves that there is no limit to what an artist can create.
Following the reception, guests will enjoy a 45-minute performance of poetry readings and dances written and choreographed by the Arts Access artists. This multidisciplinary event is a demonstration of the ways that individuals with disabilities make their ideas, imagination, and creativity come to life. The art show is on view now through December 7.
The Arts Council of Princeton is at 102 Witherspoon Street. For more information, visit artscouncilorprinceton.org or call 609.924.8777.
