On Friday, November
16, 2007, singers and performers with multiple and severe developmental
disabilities presented a remarkable evening of talent and determination.
The evening began at the Alvin Sherman Library, Research and Technology
Center at Nova Southeastern University with the 5th Annual
Art Exhibition entitled 'Earth's Echo," which featured 5 new
collaborative pieces of art created from things found on our planet
ranging from sand and tree branches to recycled materials. In addition
to these new pieces, the Ann Storck Center’s permanent collection of 25
original pieces of art was presented. Each of artists was introduced to
guests at a reception held during the exhibit.
Following the art
reception, guests were escorted to the Alfred and Rose Miniaci
Performing Arts Center, located next to the library, to enjoy “The
Island,” the Center’s 7th Annual Expressive Arts
Performance. All of the 30 participants in the "The Island" program,
including set designers, singers and performers live with multiple and
severe developmental disabilities and are residents or program
participants of the Ann Storck Center’s day program. The evening was a
celebration of abilities despite disabilities.
