Description:
Painting,
drawing, writing, music, drama
and other forms of arts are expressed
beautifully by and through individuals
with disabilities in Keri Bower's
new film, ARTS. — Sharing the
power of the arts used to improve
social, emotional, cognitive,
expressive, and life skills in
individuals with challenges is
at the heart of this glimpse
into pure talent demonstrated
by people with disabilities.
ARTS explores
the possibilities of creating commercial and personal
successes for young artists with various disabilities
when encouraged and paired with professional artists
working in a field closely related to the artists’ area of talent. From fine art, including painting,
drawing and photography, to writing, music, drama
and other forms of art, the film explores how the
arts can create invaluable opportunities for development
and growth for persons with disabilities. From
social and life skill development, to self-esteem
and self-awareness, the film concludes that for
those with artistic gifts, career goals can be
achieved.
