What is Expressions?

The 8th Annual Expressions Art Exhibition showcases artists with disabilities, celebrating their abilities and unique talents.  The annual exhibition adds diversity to the Kansas City arts community and exposes audiences to art that otherwise might not be seen.

Expressions not only breaks down some of the barriers that artists with disabilities face, but it also offers an art gallery experience that is accessible to people of all abilities.
