Neighborhood Center of the Arts

Neighborhood Center for the Arts’ mission is to provide the opportunity for adults with developmental disabilities to grow to the best of their ability through the arts and community integration. The featured programs promote creativity, independence and dignity. Each day, up to 50 artists ranging in age from 21 to 75 attend the studio and create weavings, ceramics, paintings, drawings, woodwork and computer arts. Many of NCA’s artists have had their works exhibited in numerous solo and group exhibitions, including European galleries.

Neighborhood Center for the Arts also serves the whole person by incorporating the creative arts, paid work, education, training and independent living in a total synthesis. They believe there is no limit to the level of expressive accomplishment any person can achieve. The art created is uninhibited, authentic and inspiring. The artists receive the majority of the proceeds from the sale of their art in NCA’s gallery.
