Nonprofit Overview
Causes: Arts & Culture, Arts Services
Mission: Providing studio space, materials, and guidance to artists with autism is at the heart of what we do. Most of the art you see on our website and at our exhibitions is created by Studio By The Tracks artists. Our team of staff and volunteers offer personalized levels of assistance to each artist to create the artwork they envision. Artists get to create in a supportive and inclusive environment. We make room for every artist to thrive creatively and socially while remaining comfortable. The long-term relationships we have with our artists, some of whom have been artists at the Studio for more than 30 years, demonstrate our commitment to this. Once a piece or collection has been completed by an adult artist, we work to place it into viable a marketplace online and in-person. Our artists receive 60% of the sale of their artwork which we hope provides them with not only income but also a metric to show that their contribution to the art world holds recognized value. This is also one way we seek to incorporate our artists and their work into the local, regional, and national art community. Thanks to our sponsors, donors, and funders, Studio By The Tracks is proud to be able to offer a robust arts program completely free of cost.
