04/22/2016 07:33 AMA group of artists at Vista Life Innovations, a community-based education program for individuals with disabilities, created a three-dimensional work of art in celebration of World Autism Awareness Day on April 2.
The nautical-themed Light It Up Blue art piece was completed in less than two weeks with contributions from nine artists in Vista’s Connect Through Art program. A variety of media was used for the project, such as painted light bulbs and foam insulation. The rest of the piece is a combination of paint on canvas and pasted paper drawings.
Connect Through Art is one of the many programs and services offered by Vista. This structured, experiential arts-based day program runs five days a week at Vista’s downtown Madison art studio and event space located at 712 Boston Post Road.
