"The SaludArte Foundation is a non-profit organization that has been playing an important role supporting the arts by providing a platform to promote the development of educational and social integration programs through the visual and performing arts, serving the U.S and Latin America since its beginning in 2003."
SaludArte aims to integrate and empower individuals with disabilities through artistic expression. They invited our Art Class from The WOW Center Miami, along with 20 of our students, to experience a two day workshop with amazing dancers from Spain. Our students all have different disabilities, from autism to Down syndrome, and every single one left feeling inspired and free. SaludArte brings different artists to every workshop they host and it's beyond incredible for every participant! They learned how to improvise and make art with their bodies based on what they hear and feel! Our next workshop will be with a sculpture artist! We can not wait!
Besides hosting these workshops, SaludArte hosts a whole Art Gallery showing for different people - whether it be someone not trained professionally or someone with a disability. They have kindly asked us to fill their space this upcoming August and we are ecstatic to show off our students work in such a beautiful space with kind hearted people!
This nonprofit does such a beautiful job supporting those often overlooked and they are beyond worth checking out! Check their website for a Calendar of events and don't miss out! read more
