Mission

The Art of Autism is a collaborative project that brings awareness to the general public the creative abilities of people with autism. Our plan is to do this, in part, by facilitating exhibits of their work throughout the world.

By bringing awareness about the artistic gifts of people on the spectrum, The Art of Autism inspires community members, gives hope to parents of children on the spectrum, as well as adults with autism, and shifts consciousness about autism.
