ART PROGRAM & HEART & SOULT ART AUCTION

Easter Seals West Kentucky boasts a unique andgrowing program at our Adult Services Center. For thepast 8 years, our adult clients have had the opportunity to work closely with Art instructors, Ms. Diana Davenport& Ms. Deb Lyons as well as Paducah, KY's Lowertown artists on collaborative pieces. The Art Program offers those with intellectual or physical disabilities an outlet; a way to focus on their talents and abilities. For those that are wheel chair bound, our art program offers endless opportunities for creativity; for those that are non verbal or have communicative disorders, the art program gives freedom of thought and expression.

The Art Program has grown to include one of our community'sfavorite yearly events; the Heart & Soul Art Auction (fundraiser).The Art Auction includes collaborative pieces from our Adult artistsand Paducah's Lowertown artists. These pieces have become more beautiful with each passing year and generate thousands of dollars, which go back into the Art Program. (our adult artists may choose whetheror not to auction their art pieces or to keep them) Heart & Soul is made possible through Sponsorships of local businesses, donations of silent auction items from businesses throughout the United States, countless volunteers and wonderful staff members of ESWKY.

With the donation of a Kiln earlier this year from Jason & Nicole Farley& boys, the Art Program will continue to add to its curriculum withclay and pottery. The Art Program has plans to include the Child Development Center as well.
