Every purchase from our gallery directly supports artists with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Each piece sold isn’t just art—it’s confidence gained, skills strengthened, and independence built. Through our Art & Education program, artists earn income from their work, learn professional art practices, and explore creative entrepreneurship. From curating exhibits to managing inventory and hosting community shows, we provide the tools, mentorship, and opportunities that help our artists thrive. When you buy art here, you’re investing in inclusion, empowerment, and the belief that every artist deserves to shine.
We support our artists by presenting galleries in a variety of ways—through three annual sales events (Bark for The Arc, Paintings & Pints, and Art on the Rocks), as well as ongoing community galleries hosted by local businesses. Our artists also share their work through our merch website and other creative outlets across the region. Check out the options below to see the many ways we enhance our gallery program to create—and advocate for—spaces where Austin-based artists with IDD can grow, connect, and be celebrated.
