Georgia Artists with
DisAbilities, Inc. was founded by the Pilot Clubs of Metropolitan Atlanta in 1985, enabling disabled artists throughout Georgia with the
opportunity to display and sell their original art, as well as being eligible
to compete for awards. Based on the awards given, artists may also have the opportunity to have their artwork displayed
in a statewide tour and exhibit.
Many mediums of artwork are included in
the show, such as pottery, painting, sculpture, woodcarving, photography,
weaving, and others.
As GAWD begins making plans for the future, we continue
to focus on our theme from our very first year - “Visions and Dreams, Tomorrow’s Reality.”
Our main goal over the years has been to identify those disabled citizens of
Georgia who are creative, capable, and talented in the arts, so that their achievements
and talents can be recognized. There are many disabled artists in Georgia who have visions
and dreams, but have no way of making it a reality. We help make it a reality for them.
Recently, the parent of one of our new artists made this statement. ”Oh, how I wish
my son had known about GAWD before now. ”Do you know someone like this in your community?
