All Abilities Art - October 16, 2026

Art enrichment classes are held each month at the Jewish Community Center of Youngstown and Salem Public Library. We offer a variety of projects, including canvas painting, decoupage, jewelry making, floral crafts, and more. Classes are led by an art instructor and one assistant. They include specialized instruction, with step-by-step guides to provide a great experience for all ability levels. Projects are designed to provide individuals with disabilities the ability to create art with minimal assistance, encourage independence, and ensure creativity is their own. Adaptive art supplies are available to help everyone feel comfortable and confident to create one-of-a-kind pieces.

We ask that parents, caregivers, and/or direct support professionals stay during the art class to provide additional assistance as needed. Art projects are intended for individuals with developmental disabilities only. Additionally, we ask that artists arrive 10-15 minutes early for class so we can begin on time. This is important as many projects take the full hour to complete. Our teams carefully plan each step of the project for the time allotted for the class. For this reason, we will not be able to allow artists that arrive 10 minutes or more past the start time to join the class in progress.
