Key Points: A college dedicated to performing arts catered to adults with disabilites offers a range of learning experiences from dance and music to painting and drawing and "provide(s) training that will allow any student to push the boundaries of their potential and thrive, creating successful and fulfilling lives for themselves."

Audience: educators, special education educators, public, board members

Relevance: This article is relevant because it shows that learning comes in a variety of ways including art. For some students, art is the only way that they can express themselves or come to an understanding about what is being taught. A school like this that is catered to adults with disabilities is even more beneficial as it allows students with differing abilities to be able to comprehend and succeed in ways that go beyond the traditional school setting.
