Join us for The Art of Me, a multidisciplinary performance and photography exhibit co-created by Upstream Arts and Northeast Contemporary Services, Inc. (NCSI).
Drawing on structured improvisations from Upstream Arts classes, the performance features creative contributions of artists with disabilities from the NCSI community, providing a unique platform for self-expression through theater, music, poetry, visual art, and dance.
The accompanying photography exhibit features portraits of artists with disabilities from the NCSI community. With a mix of self-portraits and images crafted by their peers, the exhibit showcases the voices of these artists as they choose to be seen and as they see each other.
Both the performance and the exhibit will take place at NCSI in the Twin Lakes IV building in Roseville. Join us to enjoy a completely original performance and exhibit as artists with disabilities share their voices, talents, and perspectives!
