Adults with Disabilities: My Choice, My Art, Me


Adult / Lifelong Learning -
Adult Fall 2025

Join us for this vibrant and inclusive art experience tailored to every skill level! In this engaging series, each participant will create up to 2-3 unique artworks using an array of mixed media of their choice-from bold acrylics and paint markers to expressive pastels and color pencils. With a cozy and person-centered class size limited to 6, you'll receive lots of one-to-one support and the freedom to choose your inspiration: whether it's your beloved pet, a mouth-watering dessert, or a favorite vacation spot-special requests are warmly welcomed. Have fun, grow your confidence and creativity, all while learning more about you!

Each student or their guardian is required to have a conversation with Candice Simpson, the instructor, prior to the class start date. This will allow her to learn about the students' individual needs/circumstance. She will reach out to each student prior to the start date.

Please note that the guardian will remain on site in the welcome area of the Edina Community Center building. There is a couch area with high counter workspaces for you to use. The welcome area is right next to the classroom in the event that a student needs assistance. Students attend class on their own, thereby fostering their independence and unique sense of creativity. This class is designed for adults with developmental and/or intellectual disabilities and neurodiverse individuals.

Please note that two of the dates for this series have changed. The second and third session will now be held on a Monday.
