"The Hattie Larlham Creative Arts Program gives artists with profound disabilities a hand and a voice, letting them create without the focus of their limitations. We see the people we work with as artists, refusing to define them by their disabilities, but rather, letting them define themselves by what they can achieve.

Things That Made Me Smile
After reading/viewing years upon years of photography magazines, I have come to the conclusion that people like to look at a series, be that a diptyke, triptick or full-blown gallery-stuffed exhibit. They like continuity, a segue of semblance that allows them the pleasure of looking at without having to necessarily look into.more
