Here are our weeks at AVITA so far. We've become so involved and attached to our work here, and the participants seem to be enjoying their time with us in envisioning, producing, and seeing art. It seems as though we have introduced them to an array of opportunities in which they can create art. We're sad that our time here is coming to an end, but we can't wait to present AVITA's art show! Enjoy our weeks in photos with ArtStream below!

A Letter from AVITA:
All of us at LARC want to thank Dr. Chris Dockery and the ArtStream students for sharing their talents, knowledge and passion for art with the individuals we serve. You provided us with teachable moments as staff watched you all engage each and every person in your class. Over the 12 weeks friendships were made and many happy faces every Thursday were seen waiting on your arrival. The highlight of their week. We hope we have been able to provide you with knowing that all people are the same, we only learn differently. We all have something to offer in this life. We never doubt that someone cannot reach their dreams. It is because of you these 12 weeks that many dreams will come true by your ability to care, show confidence in them and know that they too deserve the best life has to offer. THANK YOU ALL.
