CATAโ€™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 Clark Art Institute in Williamstown, MA (May 24 – September 22, 2024) and the Lichtenstein Center for the Arts in Pittsfield, MA (July 5 – August 20, 2024).ย 

 

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.
