Creativity has been flowing in our Tuesday painting & drawing studios—just look at what our artists are creating!

Thanks to support from Community Fund Ohio, our artists received their very own AOS t-shirts to celebrate Developmental Disabilities Awareness Month.

The pride and excitement around something so seemingly small has been a joy to witness. We’ve had artists, caregivers, and staff share how much these shirts mean—how proudly they’re worn and how proud our artists are to be part of AOS. And they absolutely should be. 💙

Thank you Community Fund Ohio for helping us celebrate our artists in such a meaningful way!

We did it. 𝒀𝑶𝑼 𝒅𝒊𝒅 𝒊𝒕! 💛

Our annual campaign goal has officially been met, and because of YOU, we raised $𝟹0,𝟾𝟽𝟸 for Artists' Open Studio.

Let that number sink in for a second. $𝟹0,𝟾𝟽𝟸. That is programming. That is supplies. That is accessibility. That is artists showing up every week to a space that is theirs.

And because of your generosity, we have even more exciting news to share: 𝐰𝐞'𝐫𝐞 𝐚𝐝𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚 𝐛𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐧𝐞𝐰 𝐬𝐭𝐮𝐝𝐢𝐨 𝐝𝐚𝐲 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐢𝐧 𝐉𝐮𝐥𝐲! 🎨

More artists. More creativity. More community.

This community shows up for our artists in the most humbling way and we will never take that for granted. From the bottom of our hearts, we thank you.

Stay tuned for more details on our new studio day. The best is still ahead. 🙌
