Everyday, we help adult artists with physical or developmental disabilities make their art. If you have experience drawing or creating works on paper or you simply like to draw, we would love to have your help.
What we’ll need from you: the ability to answer questions about techniques, an urge to organize supplies, the willingness to finish pieces (like spraying fixative on charcoal drawings) and simply to engage with our artists on a personal level. Experience working with the disability community is not necessary, but an interest in art certainly is required.

Mission Statement
At NIAD Art Center, our mission is to promote creative expression, independence, dignity and community integration for adults with disabilities.
Description
Every business day we work with approximately 35 adult artists with disabilities. We provide staff in each work area as well as studio aides. We assist our artists in the art making process. We help educate them about art history and contemporary art. We create exhibition opportunities for their art. We sell their art. And we advocate on their behalf.
Volunteers are an essential and valuable part of the Art Center. We’re enriched by your skills, talents, and viewpoints. You bring an important and dedicated voice of the community into our conversations. You expand our abilities to work with our artists. We cannot do this without you.
