The Museum Celebration of International Day of Persons with Disabilities

Nearly a billion people live with a disability – that is just about 15% of the world’s population! This is a population that often faces many challenges and barriers in their everyday lives that others do not.  The Cummer Museum believes that art is for all people and constantly looks for ways to remove barriers and ease challenges for persons with disabilities to engage with and to create art.

The neighborhood feels different, and Anthony Aiuppy, Thony to those who know him best, loves this area.
