Our innovative Painting Workshops offer our students a unique experience while demonstrating to the communities in which they live what they can do rather than what they cannot do. Our only program at this time is a Painting Workshop in which our students with developmental disabilities work with a professional artist to complete works of art in an inclusive, fun and respectful environment. Our Workshops are unique in that we approach each student as an artist. Some art programs for people with developmental disabilities use "hand over hand" techniques in which an instructor completes all or a section of a painting, some use non-professional instructors, arts, and crafts like materials or are non-inclusive by not inviting "typical" individuals to participate. However, we only use artist grade materials, and our instructor is a working artist who never touches the canvas. Also, we encourage participation in our Workshops by care givers, family, and members of the community. We have received very positive feedback regarding our Workshops related to the high student enthusiasm for attending, the quality of the artwork produced and the impact our Workshops have on our students. Family members and caregivers have told us that many of our students have experienced a growth in their self-esteem and self-confidence due to the favorable input they receive on their paintings and others have developed a focus, sense of purpose and pride not observed in them before. Also, we have watched excitedly as an IndicatorArt community has formed with friendships blossoming between students, family members and volunteers. Each Workshop is comprised of 4 one-hour classes. After the last class, we have a critique session of our students' work to which family, friends and the general public are invited. Our students have the opportunity to talk about their painting and are given feedback from a panel of professional artists and the audience. Our critique sessions are more than a simple discussion. They often become a celebration and demonstration of which each of us is capable of doing. Our objective is to bring the benefits of our Painting Workshop to as many people with developmental disabilities as possible. In 2024, we had our best year ever. We implemented 40 Painting Workshops comprised of over 300 "student" slots and reached our 2024 objective of servicing 150 different individuals. Our long-term goal (2026) is to have 300 different individuals participate in our Painting Workshops. 0 64985 We only have one program. 0 0 We only have one program 0 0 64985 Douglas Rockwood Board President(Acting) 2.00 0 0 0 Katie Buvoltz Treasurer 0.50 0 0 0 Michael Maisel Board Member 0.50 0 0 0 Dominick Palmo Vice-President 3.00 0 0 0 Matthew Palmo Executive Director 42.00 58850 5015 0 false false false false false 0 false false 0 0 0 false 0 0 false NY Dominick Palmo 5 Lakewood Dr Orchard Park NY 14127 7168706505 false false false false false false false false false false false NONE 0 NONE 0 true X 0 0 0 0 10432 9958 13035 14100 14700 62225 18345 36292 32201 35310 66160 188308 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 28777 46250 45236 49410 80860 250533 2500 50 6600 1000 1300 11450 0 0 0 0 0 0 2500 50 6600 1000 1300 11450 239083 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 28777 46250 45236 49410 80860 250533 0.95430 0.00000 0.00000 0.00000 X Part I, Line 16 Other expenses include: -payroll processing fees -program supplies (canvas, paint) -program payment processing fees (PayPal) -insurances (workers comp, disability, liability) -web hosting/other charges (web site plugins) -IT applications (Zoom, Google suite) -Wi-Fi -State sales tax (on supplies provided to students) Part III 28-31 We only have one program which we are currently implementing: Painting Workshops
