Come see the work of CATA artists in our annual art show at the Clark Art Institute and the Lichtenstein Center for the Arts!

CATA’s Annual Art Show features more than 150 paintings and drawings by artists with disabilities from across Berkshire County, MA and Columbia County, NY. You can see this vibrant exhibit on display at two locations: the Lichtenstein Center for the Arts in Pittsfield, MA (June 30 – August 23, 2023) and the Clark Art Institute in Williamstown, MA (July 15 – October 29, 2023).

I Am a Part of Art is the culmination of hundreds of CATA visual arts workshops serving teens, adults, and elders with disabilities. Through these year-round workshops, CATA artists grow creatively, learn new techniques, and build community.

Artwork is available for sale! Purchase CATA artwork and support CATA artists. Every sale supports commissions for the individual artists. To purchase artwork, contact Kara Smith at [email protected].
