The ICS Artists on Wheels Gallery is featuring an exhibit at 25 Elm Place, 5th Floor (between Livingston & Fulton Streets), Downtown Brooklyn.

The ICS Artists on Wheels Gallery and Creative Writing Circle programs provide free classes, materials and studio space to any New York City resident with a physical disability. The program works with  New Yorkers whose lives have been changed forever by a stray bullet, a stroke, Multiple Sclerosis, an accident or something else that left them with a disability.

The exhibit states: Windows have a quality that has moved great artists for centuries, from the Renaissance, to the impressionists, to modern and contemporary works.  As a number of artists and writers have noted, a window provides access to light and air, two of life’s essentials. The Artists on Wheels and Creative Writing Circle programs at ICS are windows that provide metaphorical light and air, opening a path for people with disabilities to see and pursue a range of possibilities.
