Marin County Offers Art Show Featuring Students With Disabilities

SAN RAFAEL, CA — Marin County students with disabilities’ art will be on display at the annual “Outside the Lines” show opening Friday at the YIA Gallery.

From 4-6:30 p.m., Youth in Arts will host the opening exhibit that celebrates the limitless imagination of students with disabilities. The art will be on display until May 30.

The show is curated by Cathy Bowman, the Youth in Arts visual arts coordinator, and is aimed to empower students to connect with others through visual art, music, and dance.

For over 25 years, Youth in Arts has provided arts education to Marin’s Special Day Classrooms and has offered inclusive learning opportunities for those of all abilities.

Each year, the Youth in Arts “Arts Unite Us” program matches teaching artists with more than 30 classrooms.

This year’s exhibit features dynamic and colorful displays that invite visitors to see the way these young artists perceive the world.
