Art Center

TARC’s Art Center is where those we serve love to express themselves through art. They participate in our Art from the Heart, a structured class offered twice a week is taught by an instructor from Washburn University. Our Art Program offers a variety of adapted pieces of equipment to ensure that all have the opportunity to be creative and express themselves. All adaptive equipment is operated by a big mac switch. We use a variety of media including: paint, photography and mixed media arts.
