This exhibition showcases visual artists with autism from the studio of Project
Onward, a program of the Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs. Project
Onward supports the creativity of artists with developmental disabilities by
providing work space, art materials, and professional guidance in a communal
studio at the historic Chicago Cultural Center. With the program’s support,
Project Onward artists develop a professional body of work that
reflects a devotion to their personal vision and a desire for artistic growth.
Project Onward was founded upon the belief that artists with special needs
deserve a voice in the world of art and ideas, and that their extraordinary
work has a universal audience.
